About
Indigenous Cities presents memories from Indigenous community members based in cities across Canada; memories that have been interpreted by Indigenous artists to create a unique audio storytelling experience.
We invite you to explore our virtual maps, watch video of the locations where each of these real stories takes place, and listen to these meaningful audio stories and songs. This year’s stories are based in the cities known as Vancouver, Saskatoon, and Ottawa.
This year is just the beginning, as Indigenous Cities will continue to feature stories from across the country in future seasons.
Indigenous Cities was inspired by Phenomania’s Secret City, created by Heather Cant.
