Show. Tell. Share.
Storytelling is a common practice in many Indigenous communities and an integral to sharing knowledge and understanding of one's relations with other people, places, and concepts.
Photovoice is a form of storytelling that Spirit North uses to turn up the volume on Indigenous youth voices.
This exhibit will showcase beautiful photos and videos that capture the experience of being on the land through sport and play, promote cross-cultural understanding, and share ways of being and relating to others.
