Gathering: Festival of First Nations Stories 2024

Children came to Couchiching Park to learn about Indigenous culture. We were grateful to Elders John Rice and Rosanne Irving along with Erin Dixon of the Gojijing Friendship Circle, who led our learning. We were also lifted by the incredible guest speakers at Gathering: Festival of First Nations Stories at Rama First Nation. What a thrill! Thank you Sherry Lawson, Alicia Elliott, Drew Hayden Taylor, Armand Garnet Ruffo, Brandon Reid, Julie Williams, Christa Big Canoe, Keesic Douglas, Mike Nicols and Chief Lady Bird! Finally, We were very excited to have Wolf Saga join us for a youth concert! A huge shout out to Mark Webster for the amazing lighting design.
