Traditional Metis Drum Making
Traditional Drum making - 5pm Thursday (early arrival offering)
This year will be Lana's 5th year holding traditional drum weaving at the festival. Here, all are welcome to come hear traditional stories and bring their own drum to life. Drums hold sacred meaning in almost all ancient cultures, Canadian Indigenous being one of them. This medicine helped guide ceremony, visions and healing. We respectfully weave these drums in honour of our ancestors and those of who lost this medicine. You will walk away with a beautiful drum to take and share in our own community.
Drum Awakening - Sunday morning
This ceremony is part 2 for all women who make a drum over the weekend. Lana was taught that our drums are the medicine of our ancestors and to use a drum we must hold it with the utmost respect. This ceremony honours the journey, the birth, of that drum. All are welcome to come learn traditional songs and be a part of this drum ceremony.
