Join us for a day of healing with Elders and Knowledge Keepers from Stoney Nakoda, Kainai and Tsuut’ina First Nations and the Métis Nation of Alberta Region 3, bringing our communities together in reconciliation and honouring Survivors, their families, and their communities.
Everyone is welcome and encouraged to participate in the raising and lowering of the tipi and trapper's tent; listen to Elder prayers, teachings, stories, songs, music and join in a round dance. Enjoy a cup of tea and a taste of bannock made over an open fire. Come and visit with First Nation and Métis Elders and Knowledge Keepers.
Dress for the weather and bring a lawn chair for your comfort.
This free, public event is made possible through a collaboration of Elders, Knowledge Keepers, the Circle Connections for Reconciliation Society and the City of Airdrie. Funding for this event has been provided by the Government of Canada and the City of Airdrie.
