Description
This live intensive class will take place over 2 days (we will have a period of 1 month between classes for work at home to be done in case participants with to carve, paint or bead elements for their cradle baord).

These cradleboards will be made with printed fabric, however, those who wish to bring beaded panels to add to their cradlebaords may.
We will supply materials for creating the tikinakan.

Taanishi! Dishinikawshon Natalie Pepin. I am a Metis woman in the Tawatinaw Valley in Alberta, Canada. I support indigenous people who are reclaiming their indigenous roots to connect with their culture through learning the traditional skills, arts, stories and teachings of our ancestors. I support indigenous people, who are severed from their traditions by legacy and trauma of colonization, who are discovering that their culture is beautiful. I teach indigenous arts workshops such as beading, moccasin making and brain tanning as a means of reconciliation and reconnection.
