You're invited to a celebration of First Nations arts and culture
Singing, dancing, music, art
and a tasty lunch adds up to a
stellar event, and everyone's
invited.
The Indigenous Music, Arts and Culture Celebration will take place in Forwell Hall on February 12 from 10 a.m. to 2 p.m. It's a chance for everyone to learn a bit more about the history and evolution of the culture.
Andrew Judge, an instructor at the College and one of the organizers of the event, said it's being held as part of Fanshawe's First Nations Studies program's community outreach initiative. “Not only are we using this opportunity to generate more interest in the First Nations Studies program major, but we also are trying to give back to our community who supported us from the start.”
The celebration will include a performance by world-renowned musician David Maracle and a hand-drum song and hoop dance demonstration by Nimkii nini (Thunder man). At^lohsa Native Family Healing Services Inc. will be making some Three Sisters Soup — made of corn, beans and squash — for lunch.
“Everyone's welcome to come out and try the soup and to get to experience the evolution of our culture to its present,” Judge said.
