Join local resident Liz Camsell for an indigenous beading workshop!
Thank you for the support of Cree artist, Kate-Lynn Wells - Earth Dance who raised money this past fall by designing orange shirts and selling them. As requested by Kate-Lynn (Earth Dance) All monies raised from the sale of these shirts was donated to O-YA to be used in partnering with rural communities in providing indigenous cultural teachings and/or raising awareness for indigenous peoples and communities and we are proud to be able to offer this evening due to these efforts.
More about Kate-Lynns Orange Shirt Project
Cree artist, Kate-Lynn Wells - Earth Dance painted a picture at 11 years of age, from a photograph taken of her and Gitxsan friend at their first powwow together and had it printed on orange shirts this fall. Both of these indigenous youth are intergenerational residential school survivors who are proud to be able to celebrate and immerse themselves in their culture openly and freely today. This picture marks the start of a friendship and their journey to learn their culture, an opportunity that was taken from so many before them.
