Indigenous Futurism in Motion; Gatherings of Art, Story & Ceremony
May 7 - 24, 2026
An array of activities to deepen the experience of our featured events, Radio III / ᎦᏬᏂᏍᎩ ᏦᎢ and Teach Me A Song.
This multi-day gathering invites you to move through interconnected spaces of ceremony, dialogue, and artistic expression—grounded in Treaty 7 and guided by Indigenous voices.
From the raising of the tipi to critical conversations within academia, from exhibition to artist-led storytelling, each moment reflects the continuum of Indigenous presence: past, present, and future—held together in motion.
