Weekends in the Studio! Bezhig Miigwan / One Feather

Join Programming Assistant Emily Conlon in the studio to contribute a feather to our collaborative community display, organized in partnership with the Windsor Essex Catholic District School Board. 

The theme of the display is bezhig miigwan, meaning “one feather”, that symbolizes each survivor, each child lost and denotes that we are all connected and it is vital to work together to achieve reconciliation. It honours the experiences of Indigenous Peoples, celebrates resilience and affirms a commitment that every child matters. The feather represent our collective commitment to working together to achieve truth and reconciliation.  

The goals of the display are to promote student engagement and cultural expression through art, empower students and celebrate their talents, and foster collaboration and partnership between AWE and the WECDSB.
