Traditional Languages Exhibit Open Now at Hibulb Cultural Center

Prior to colonization, the area now known as Washington State had multiple language groups uniquely spoken by various separate tribes and bands. This exhibit will explore six of those language groups that surround the Salish Sea: Klallam, Twana, Nooksack, Northern Straits, Northern Lushootseed, and Southern Lushootseed.

Through narration and interactive displays, you will learn the history of traditional local languages as well as the complex story of the revitalization tribal nations are undergoing to this day.

About Us

The Hibulb Cultural Center and Natural History Preserve mission is to revive, restore, protect, interpret, collect and enhance the history, traditional cultural values and spiritual beliefs of the Tulalip Tribes who are the successors in interest to the Snohomish, Snoqualmie and Skykomish tribes and other tribes and bands signatory to the Treaty of Point Elliott.

The Hibulb Cultural Center is approximately 23,000 square feet with a 50-acre natural history preserve. The interactive cultural center features a main exhibit, a temporary exhibit, two classrooms, a longhouse, a research library, and gift shop. It also features a fully certified collections and archaeological repository. It was the first Tribal facility certified by the state of Washington.
