About

Celebrate Indigenous heritage and culture, while creating a visual reminder to recognize and honour the past.

The Moccasin Identifier advances Treaty and Indigenous awareness by helping you develop a greater understanding of Treaties and Indigenous relationships to the land. Using a Moccasin Identifier Education Kit, participants will use stencils based on drawings of historical moccasins of the Anishanaabe, Huron-Wendat, Seneca and Cree to create paintings of the moccasin designs, grounding their learning through an art-based activity.

This drop-in program is for all ages. Please come prepared to paint.
