ICYMI: Smudge Bowl Workshop

Piecing together the multiple, intersecting histories of Winnipeg and the Indigenous peoples of the Red River settlement.

Tracy Charette Fehr has traced her grandmother’s history all the way back to 1770 until 2020 which marks 250 years. For Heartbeat of a Nation, Fehr has created 250 handmade, smoke fired bowls which represent those years and honour the lives of Métis women.

World renowned Metis artist, Jennine Krauchi will take us through a journey of the history of the Metis, our ancestors, and the truly amazing rebirth of our art form known as beadwork.

Join us for a virtual panel discussion about Metis Identity: Race-Shifting, Identity Theft & Protecting Metis Culture.

Join us for a FREE discussion with Dr. Chantal Fiola and her ground-breaking examination of Metis spirituality, discussing assumptions such as “all Metis people are Catholic,” and “Metis people do not go to ceremonies.”
