Vancouver Public Library is honoured to introduce Chris Bose as the 2025 Indigenous Storyteller in Residence.Chris Bose is a writer, musician and multi-disciplinary artist hailing from Kamloops, B.C. A member of the Nlaka’pamux and Secwepemc Nations, Chris has been a professional storyteller for almost 30 years. His work has been published in a variety of publications and exhibited in galleries. He has also shared traditional Nlaka’pamux and Secwepemc stories at schools, festivals, and cultural events across Canada.
“The stories I share come from my grandmother and grandfather, my Yeah Ya7 and Spa7 Pu La7,” says Bose. “They were revered storytellers who travelled across Canada in the 1970s, and I now continue their legacy.
I’m looking forward to sharing these stories and my culture to help others – both Indigenous and non-Indigenous – find their voice.”
Come join us for an afternoon of storytelling and music with special guest Russell Wallace and friends.
