Cultural Safety Series | Lunch & Learn (Virtual)

Qulliq Teachings With Inuit Elder Martha Peet

Who should attend: all staff are welcome.

Registration is not required.

The Qulliq is an Inuit lamp that provides light and warmth to the Earth. The lamp is made out of soapstone and is shaped in a half moon with a vessel to hold oil for burning.

It was originally made by a husband for his wife. This symbolized that she was the flame keeper of the home. On a deeper spiritual level, it also honours the fact that women are the life carriers.
