Promoting and Protecting Indigenous Arts Website Launch + Panel Discussion

The Indigenous Futures Research Centre (IFRC) is launching an exciting new website on the promotion and protection of Indigenous arts (PPIA-PPAA.CA). This website will consist of articles, resources, and other information from a wide range of scholars, Indigenous artists, and community members on issues regarding the cultural expressions of Indigenous peoples and the cultural appropriation of Indigenous practices and arts.

The launch will be followed by a panel on Indigenous fashion with NWT born/Toronto-based fashion designer Sage Paul (Denesuline), visual artist Nico Williams (Aamjiwnaang First Nation), and Kuujjuaq born/Montréal-based fashion designer, Julie Grenier. This panel will be moderated by Dr. Heather Igloliorte.

This event is open to all. Join us in-person or online by registering for the Zoom meeting or watching live on 4th Space’s YouTube channel.
