Da gou rou louwi’ = “the ongoing return of all”
"When naming our new Cultural Center, Da gou rou louwi’ Cultural Center, we wanted a name that described that this place will house the ongoing return of all thoughts, things, ideas, and initiatives that are important to Wiyot people. This includes sacred and ceremonial practices, Soulatluk (the Wiyot language), lifeways, cultural traditions, healthy land, water, air, plants, and animals, the return of our Ancestors from museums so they can be laid to rest, a voice in our collective history, and a stronger, more cohesive Wiyot Community. Da gou rou louwi’ encompasses these ideas and goals."
Come join the City of Eureka and Wiyot Tribe as we beautify the heart of Old Town.
