A dusk to dawn celebration of the First Nations is being held today in the uptown.
It's the final summer of festivals as part of the Saint John 225 party with arts and culture on display with people from across the Province.
The man who organized the event is Allan Polchies who tells CHSJ News, this is all about sharing the First Nations culture.
Dancers, traditional story-tellers and drummers will be performing through-out the day along with walking tours and food along with a 30-foot wig-wam set up at the base of King Street.
