Come and contribute to this community art project that honours all the Indian Day School survivors. Participants are invited to create an orange heart in memory of these resilient survivors.
During this drop-in workshop, we welcome participants to design an orange heart using beading and painting while learning more about Indian Day Schools. These hearts will then be used to create a collective art piece that will be displayed at the end of the workshop.
All materials are included in the cost of the workshop. You may leave a heart and take a heart that you create.
This workshop is created and facilitated by Emily Brascoupé.
Indian Day Schools operated for over a century. The Canadian Government with the Roman Catholic, Anglican, Presbyterian and United churches operated over 700 schools across Canada. These “schools” were used to colonize and disrupt our culture by preventing Indigenous communities from teaching their own knowledge and language. Children who attend Indian Day Schools faced verbal, physical and sexual abuse. Indian Day Schools have caused intergenerational trauma and contributed to the loss of language and culture in countless families. This project is for all the children who attended these schools, faced this abuse and persisted! We honour you!
This workshop takes place at 1 Elgin St, in the National Arts Centre's Atelier Shenkman Smith which is located across from the Box Office.

Cet événement est présenté en anglais.
Venez participer à ce projet artistique communautaire qui rend hommage à toutes les personnes ayant fréquenté les externats autochtones. Nous vous invitons à confectionner un cœur orange pour saluer la résilience de ces personnes.
Cet atelier est l’occasion à la fois d’apprendre les techniques du perlage et de la peinture et de sensibiliser le public à la tragique histoire des externats autochtones. Ces cœurs seront réunis pour créer une œuvre d’art collective qui sera exposée à la fin de l’atelier.
Tous les matériaux sont compris dans le prix de l’atelier. Vous pouvez laisser votre cœur ou repartir avec à la maison.
Cet atelier sera animé par Emily Brascoupé, l’instigatrice du projet.
Les externats autochtones ont existé au Canada pendant plus d’un siècle. Aux côtés des Églises unie, presbytérienne, anglicane et catholique romaine, le gouvernement canadien a ouvert plus de 700 de ces écoles à travers le Canada. Ces « écoles » devaient servir à éradiquer notre culture en empêchant les communautés autochtones de transmettre leurs connaissances et leur langue. Les enfants qui ont fréquenté les externats autochtones ont subi des violences verbales, physiques et sexuelles. En plus des traumatismes intergénérationnels, les externats autochtones ont contribué à la perte de la langue et de la culture au sein d’innombrables familles. Ce projet est dédié à tous les enfants qui ont fréquenté ces écoles et qui, malgré les abus subis, ont su se relever. Vous serez à jamais dans nos cœurs.
L’atelier sera offert à l’Atelier Shenkman Smith du Centre national des Arts situé en face de la Billetterie.
