À propos

Biidaaban translated means First Light, dawn comes; it is daybreak.

Join us to experience the works of talented Indigenous artists and creators during this self guided art exhibition.

Today, while we may give gifts for a number of reasons, these reasons might not be as deep or as essential as gift giving was to Indigenous peoples prior to contact. In the eyes of those who craft and create these objects, giving and receiving them still means an offering of life.

Organisateur

Biidaaban Gallery

Biidaaban Gallery was established in 2018 and located in Port Perry on the territory of the Mississaugas of Scugog Island First Nation (MSIFN) in the Township of Scugog.

Biidaaban has established a national reputation for carrying a diverse selection of authentic Indigenous arts and crafts with many Tribal groups represented.

Art represented at Biidaaban Gallery include pottery, jewelry, quill and beadwork, sculptures, weavings, basketry, carvings, as well as miscellaneous craft items.

Gift giving for the Ojibway was integral to community. Giving a gift was both a symbolic and practical approach to everyday living in that gifts were given at ceremony, as well as for survival.
