The Lelooska Foundation since its creation in 1977 has sponsored a variety of educational programs aimed at preserving the rich cultural heritage of the Native Peoples of North America. Students, parents, teachers and the general public have been able to learn through living history programs, workshops, classes and museum tours offered throughout the year.
Living History Programs
The living history programs were developed by Chief Lelooska with the advice of Chief James Aul Sewide and tribal elders to share the history and culture of the Kwakwaka’wakw (Kwakiutl) people. The Lelooska Foundation has sponsored these programs since 1977.

The Children's Discovery Museum is a child friendly space right here in Cowlitz County where children and their families can engage in imaginative, interactive hands on learning of the arts, science, and social play. Our exhibits include the nature niche (microscopes, bugs, and other cool science stuff), a farm to market equipped with fruits, vegies, a kitchen to "cook" in, and a dining area for serving up whatever their imagination has created! We have giant building logs, a doctor and dental office, dress-up, a bowling lane, our famous ping-pong shower, and much more! The Children's Discovery Museum is a gift to our community and there is no charge to come and enjoy it.
