This book is published as part of Locals Only, developed by Justin Langlois, curated by Tarin Dehod, organized with Yvonne Hanson, spanning April 2017 to June 2019. Locals Only operated as an Elder-guided, artist-designed, and youth-coordinated mobile programming space, serving as a platform for intercultural dialogue and intergenerational capacity-building by sharing traditional knowledge around food, hospitality, and community development in Saskatoon’s core neighbourhoods.

Locals Only is one of the 200 exceptional projects funded in part through the Canada Council for the Arts’ New Chapters program. With this $35 million investment, the Council supports the creation and sharing of the arts in communities across Canada.
