SUMMARY:Mi'Kmaq Basketry Workshop SOLD OUT!
DESCRIPTION:The Kentville Business Community and the Kings County Museum present—\nA one-day traditional basket weaving workshop with Frank Meuse of Bear River First Nations . The workshop participants will start their day with a smudging ceremony and sharing circle .The day will be spent weaving a small traditional Mi’kmaq ash basket . All materials will be provided. The day will end with a sharing circle before our farewells at 5PM.\nJune 21st is National Indigenous Peoples Day\, a celebration of Indigenous Peoples’ culture and heritage. This time was chosen because it corresponds to the summer solstice\, the longest day of the year\, and because for generations\, many Indigenous Peoples’ groups have celebrated their culture and heritage at this time of year.\nNational Indigenous Peoples Day is a wonderful opportunity to become better acquainted with the cultural diversity of all First Nations and for us particularly\, our Mi’kmaq community here in the Annapolis Valley.\nWe would like to focus on celebrating their significant contribution by offering the opportunity to learn the basics of the traditional skill of basket weaving.

SUMMARY:Canada 150 Exhibit
DESCRIPTION:If we could see beneath the forest floor\, we would see that all the trees\, the pine\, the birch\, maple and so on\, are holding hands\, regardless of species. We as people\, regardless of race\, must come together and hold hands and help each     other. We must listen to our Mother Earth. She is sending us a message. \n\n–Mi’kmaq Elder and Spiritual Leader\nChief Charlie Labrador\, 1932-2002 \n  \n \n“Canada 150 Exhibit” Explore an exhibit which doesn’t shy away from some controversial sides of Confederation including\, “To Join or Not to Join: The Maritime Voice Against Confederation\,” or explore what we cherish about being Canadian through the lens of local photographers as they document the travels of the Canada 150 Chair.  You can follow the travels of the tiny chair on Canada150chair.ca. The Mi’kmaq are First Nations People in Eastern Canada and in this exhibit we offer beautiful examples of their craft of basket making. In August the Heritage Trust  exhibit  “Witness to a New Nation” will be joining us . You are invited to our Canada 150 Exhibit open house on July 17th from 7pm until 8pm here at the museum\, 37 Cornwallis Street in  Kentville\, Nova Scotia \n
