On Saturday, we were invited to Rideau Hall to perform at the Governor General’s Winter Celebration.

It was an honour to meet and share space with so many genuine women who attended the Native Women’s Association of Canada (NWAC) 50th Anniversary gala.

We really enjoyed teaching and performing at this heritage village on Indigenous Peoples Day.

We were pleased to receive this invitation from Indspire to perform and teach Métis culture at their national gathering of Indigenous high school students from across Canada!

Kisac (Swampy Cree for “with a view to the future”) is our cultural education program. To ensure that the future is better, we are investing now in acquainting and enriching youth with their birthright. Someday they will be carrying these traditions forward to the next generation.

On Saturday, we were invited to Rideau Hall to perform at the Governor General’s Winter Celebration.

This event is an official part of Winterlude. Austria, Finland, Norway, and many other embassies were on site to run family-friendly activities for attendees. We performed three sets featuring our traditional dances, with special guest appearances by our Kîšâc Junior Jiggers and Elder Danka Brewer.
