Reconciliation Carving Series - Langara College- Fall 2017

I was at Langara College today. Had to drop of a few things and they happened to be having the orientation for the Reconciliation carving program. These are the sacred panels we created.
Our program brought together Indigenous and Non-Indigenous and we worked together to design and create them.


One panel honors the children who did not return from the Residential schools and one panel honors the Murdered and Missing Indigenous Women.

There is a new program starting this fall and I ask you to inquire and share the info and encourage people to participate so we can all "move forward in a good way!"

Reconciliation Carving Series

https://langara.ca/…/ab…/reconciliation-carving-program.html

Space available for September 2017!
Langara's Aboriginal Studies Department, in partnership with the Fine Arts Department, offers a unique Aboriginal carving series that is open to all students.
Students will complete two carving courses and an applied research course. Under the supervision of acclaimed Coast Salish artist Aaron Nelson-Moody, students will collaborate on the creation of two reconciliation house boards. Once complete, the house boards will become part of a planned outdoor Aboriginal space on Langara’s campus. Langara Film Arts students will document the carving process. Read more

There is so much work to be done and it starts with you and me. We must each take responsibility and help heal the wounds and create a better world for our children and children's children.
