Facilitated by local beader Rachel Carroll, in this in-person workshop you will learn how to make a beaded pin for Red Dress Day which takes place on May 5, using a single needle picket fence beadwork technique. This technique is suitable for beginner or experienced beaders.
May 5 is National Day of Awareness for Missing and Murdered Indigenous Women, Girls and Two-Spirit People in Canada. It’s also known as Red Dress Day. It’s a time when people of all backgrounds are encouraged to wear red helping to raise awareness. The red dresses act as a visual reminder of all the missing Women, Girls and Two-Spirits people.
The workshop is open to Indigenous and non-Indigenous participants alike. For non-Indigenous participants this workshop is offered as a culture exchange and learning opportunity.
The workshop is free, but a donation to the development of Mino-jichaag Mtigwaaki is appreciated. Donations can be made in person at the event or via our fundraising account here: https://www.zeffy.com/.../donate-to-create-an-indigenous...
