The Artist:
Mary Magiskan currently resides in Thunder Bay, Ontario which is on the traditional land of Anemki Wajiw more commonly known as Fort William First Nation. Her family comes from Aroland First Nation, a small reserve north east of Thunder Bay in treaty 9 territory. Throughout Mary’s life she has always been inspired by the traditional anishinaabe lifestyle that her grandparents lived by such as hunting, fishing, trapping and living off the land. Mary continues to create as a way to stay connected to her family’s original way of life. She is currently working as a cultural practitioner providing cultural care to patients of St. Joseph’s care group.
We are happy to have her instruct us on making ribbon vests. Eeeeee
On Friday, Mary will be instructing the first workshop on sewing vest patterns and putting ribbons on them to make them your own style. Then Saturday, we will be finishing up our vests.
