Join us for the latest session of Collections for Community to help increase community access to the Museum’s Anthropology and HBC Museum Collections and make connections with local artists and makers. This event is free, but space is limited to 15 participants in order to facilitate an intimate learning environment.
This next session is Sunday, February 16 from 10 am to 2 pm; bannock, tea, and coffee will be provided, but please feel free to bring a lunch since the program runs over the lunch hour and exploring collections is hungry work!
We are very excited to welcome KC Adams and Jaime Black-Morsette as our featured artists this session, and we will be showcasing the incredible birch bark bitings from the Anthropology collection alongside other beautiful belongings.
All applicants are welcome, but preference will be given to First Nations, Inuit, and Métis peoples as the aim of this program is to support Indigenous knowledge and skills reclamation. Spaces are available on a first come, first served basis, but a waitlist will be available should spaces open. Participants will be contacted to confirm their attendance.
If you have any questions please contact Amelia Fay, Curator of Anthropology and HBC Museum Collection, at AFay@ManitobaMuseum.ca.
