Please join us for a GROUNDBREAKING CEREMONY for the Mikwanedun Audisookon Center!After a long journey and thanks to the support of so many donors, Indigenous Peoples Task Force will be breaking ground on its new center for culture, arts, and wellness on Tuesday, October 15! The new building will be called Mikwanedun Audisookon, which means “remember our teachings” in Ojibwe.
All of Indigenous Peoples Task Force programs incorporate the Seven Grandfather Teachings. In the words of Executive Director Sharon Day, “Fulfilling those value systems is what makes us indigenous; the new building will be a central place where young people can come and learn what does it mean to be Indigenous.”
The groundbreaking ceremony will also incorporate the teachings. Beginning with a tobacco ceremony, speakers will each honor how each of these teachings brought us to this ground-breaking day. The Ikidowin Youth Theater Ensemble will sing and drum.
