Healing the Heart Through Listening: An Anishinaabe Reflection on Reciprocity
Healing the Heart Through Listening: An Anishinaabe Reflection on Reciprocity
The storytelling talk with author Chris La Tray will encourage you to return to a reciprocal relationship with the rest of the world, return to yourselves. Chris is a Métis storyteller, a descendent of the Pembina Band of the mighty Red River of the North and a citizen of the Little Shell Tribe of Chippewa Indians.
On display at the gallery is Healing the Heart, another Weaving Our Cultures art exhibit. It's a community exploration of plant ecology that centers Indigenous perspectives and holds space for local artists. These artists operate at the intersection of community care and care for the land, drawing from sources spanning traditional teachings, experiences in nature, literature, and more.
Healing the Heart celebrates the power of plants to not only treat ailments of the body, but also to heal the spirit and nourish the soul. It runs through March 29.
