​​Students will be immersed in a unique art camp that celebrates the rich crafting traditions of First Nations, Métis, and Inuit peoples. Led by local knowledge keepers, campers will explore a variety of craft styles and materials, gaining hands-on experience while learning through storytelling and community engagement.

Throughout the week, participants will create beautiful artworks inspired by the cultural heritage of the First Peoples, deepening their understanding of the peoples who have been here since time immemorial. This camp offers a rare opportunity to connect with Indigenous stories, traditions, and art forms in a supportive and inspiring environment.

Join us for a week of creativity, cultural exploration, and community as campers explore the vibrant arts of the First Peoples and develop a lasting respect for their diverse heritage.
