Join us in person or online as we celebrate the exhibition opening of Threads of Kin and Belonging: A Trinnipeg Live Mixtape Project. Curated by Nestor Wynrush and Julia Lafreniere.
Threads of Kin and Belonging is a visual art exhibition accompanying the 4th Trinnipeg Live Mixtape project. The first three iterations took place at The Tallest Poppy (Winnipeg, MB), West End Cultural Centre (Winnipeg, MB) and the Remai Modern Art Museum (Saskatoon, SK). This project is an intervention and conversation between Indigenous Nations and Black communities on Treaty One Territory. It is about creating, defining, and collaborating in a space by us and for us—our kin. We are exploring our collective histories and our unique, but intertwined futures—to create threads of kin and belonging.
The celebration will feature remarks from WAG-Qaumajuq board member Melissa Ridgen, Director & CEO Stephen Borys, and curators Nestor Wynrush and Julia Lafreniere, as well as beats by DJ Konjo.
WAG-Qaumajuq is an accessible space. There are gender neutral washrooms on every floor of WAG-Qaumajuq. Quiet spaces are available if needed and armless chairs are available. Click here for more accessibility information.
This project is co-produced with Synonym Art Consultation.
