Saturday, Sept 16, 2023

9:30 a.m. – 4:00 p.m.

Join artist Honey Constant-Inglis to learn some teachings behind ribbon skirts, connections to the land, and how to make your own personalized skirt.

Ribbon Skirts are a symbol of resilience, survival and identity, but their meaning changes with each person who wears one and each person who shares their history.

 

We will provide all sewing machines and thread, as well as some fabric and ribbons we have on site to use.  Feel free to bring your own materials as well, and you can message ahead for more information on what is recommended!

 

Free parking and admission to the site, trails, and exhibits are included in the cost. Our restaurant will be open, or you can feel free to bring your own lunch. Coffee, tea, and water will be provided as refreshments.

 

 

*Thank you to Saskatoon Community Foundation for their support of this workshop and supplementing costs though the Community Fund for Reconciliation Grant.

About Honey Willow

Hi! I am Honey River (They/Them) and I am Plains Cree from Sturgeon Lake First Nation. I am the Two Spirit Artist, Indigenous Archaeologist, and Heritage Educator of Honey Willow.

Honey Willow nêhiyaw Studio is named after the Red Willow plant and its teachings that have been passed down through nimosôm. Honey Willow is for anyone on a reconciliation journey. We focus on initiatives and projects that honour Indigenous heritage and community care. This includes education on dispelling myths, turning theory into practice, and connecting meaningfully with one another.

Our work is focused within four pillars:

  • Rooted in Colour
  • Building Confidence
  • Creating Action
  • and Reinventing Standards
