Language Program LOGO CONTEST: Grand Prize of $500

Design a logo for our Kwak’wala-Bakwamk’ala Language Program!

The CALR program is a partnership program between our Nations and the University of Victoria. We have 26 students in the program from the Kwagu'ł, Gusgimukw, Gwa’sala, ‘Nakwaxada’xw, Mamalilikala, 'Namgis, Ławit'sis, Ma'amtagila and Dzawada'enux nations.
