An Exercise in Understanding
The blanket exercise is a powerful and interactive learning experience that explores 500+ year relations between Indigenous and non-Indigenous peoples in Canada. Join us for an opportunity to begin healing our relationship with each other and the land. Through repositioning ourselves around the room in response to questions and stories, we create visual and visceral vignettes that expand our understanding of the history of these lands. This event will be facilitated by Mshkiki Gitigaan Kwe and a contribution of $15 to $30 is appreciated, but your presence is most important, so please sign up to attend and come!

About Our Musical Lead - Wes C-T
Wes C-T is a musician and music educator from Turtle Island, who grew up in Peterborough attending PUF the magic fellowship. Wes currently lives in Toronto; their musical endeavours range from folksy to the experimental with plenty of room in between for samba, jazz, and pop. When they can’t afford to hire bandmates Wes is known to get a bit lonely, so they would appreciate it if you come to the Wes Needs a Band show.
Tickets are $30 for regular admission, $15 for students and free for under 12.
