Honouring Our Grandmothers Healing Journey
Presentation led by Nadine Spence (Nlaka’pamux, Secwepemc, Coastal Salish, British Columbia, Canada).
Honouring Our Grandmothers Healing Journey is a movement of humanity with the natural world. It honors the grandmother’s lived experiences, story and legacy left for those of us to discover and share through storytelling, teachings, ceremony and art. The heart of this journey is the stories told by different Indigenous artists of the Pacific Northwest. Through the visual artwork they place on their cedar bentwood travelling message chest and the experience they share.
