First Nations Bedtime Stories is our annual week of storytelling. The project brings Dreaming stories as old as time into homes and classrooms across the continent.

Every year Common Ground works with First Nations communities to film five non-secret Dreaming stories told be Elders and Knowledge Custodians. To share and strengthen these stories for future generations, and provide a way for all people to connect with the oldest continuing cultures on earth. These stories are a rich source of valuable knowledge and wisdom.
