We are proud to be participating for the fourth year running in the Annual Native Men’s Residence Pow Wow, Saturday June 26th. We have been honoured to facilitate ongoing multi-media drop-in arts activities at Tumivut and Na Me Res for several years, with the tireless assistance of Rachel Schilling. We thank the Toronto and Ontario Arts Councils for making the arts programming possible. Please visit our Art Tent on the Pow Wow grounds to see (and purchase) handmade silkscreen shirts designed and printed by the men of Na Me Res plus other arts and crafts. The children’s art-making will be just outside the tent.
