Malahat Skywalk Features

A Gathering for Connection and Understanding

At Malahat SkyWalk, we believe that learning happens through experience, relationships, and openness. Four Winds is a gathering to create space for these values to be lived. This event is about the joy of learning and the power of meaningful connection.

Why Four Winds Matters

At Malahat Skywalk, Four Winds carry deep symbolic meaning - representing the elements, seasons, and stages of life. Our event builds on that framework, offering an invitation to listen, learn, celebrate, and grow together.

We are honoured to host this event in collaboration with Malahat Nation, whose vision and leadership guide our shared efforts. While Four Winds is rooted in Malahat territory, it is a celebration of many voices, with artists and entrepreneurs from several First Nations across Vancouver Island joining together in the spirit of connection.

Participate with Respect and Care

We invite you to listen and learn with an open heart to the stories and teachings shared by the artists and knowledge keepers. Please ask permission before photographing any performer or vendor.
