Truth and Reconciliation Through Collective Creation

In honour of Truth and Reconciliation, Cree-Métis artist and La Fab resident Amanda Pierce will invite the community into a day of art as healing. Together, participants will create feather bundles—each infused with story, intention, and care—to be tied to the trees beside La Fab as a gift to the forest. The day will also feature the powerful storytelling and hoop dancing of Makhena Rankin Guerin, a Two-Spirit Anishinaabe/Algonquin artist, accompanied by the heartbeat of the drum and songs that carry voices across generations. This gathering is both a creative celebration and a space of remembrance, resilience, and reconnection between people, culture, and the land.
