This past November, 15 young Indigenous designers spent three days creating unique head-to-toe looks with guidance from creative mentors. These designs celebrate their cultural heritage and personal identities. From ribbon skirts and vests to accessories, the designers gave traditional garments a modern twist. This project was co-developed by Indigenous community members in partnership with AWE and SOAHAC. Join us in celebrating their amazing work!
This program is supported by The Gord Downie & Chanie Wenjack Fund.
