We respectfully acknowledge that we gather on Treaty 1 Territory, the traditional homeland of the Anishinaabe, Ininìwak (Cree), and Dakota Nations, and homeland of the Red River Métis Nation.
We are grateful for their stewardship of this land, and the gifts of water from Shoal Lake 40 First Nation, and electricity from Treaty 5 Nations, which allow us to live and create here. We especially appreciate the beauty and skill of the beading and embroidery traditions passed down through many generations of Indigenous peoples and generously shared with the wider creative community.
