Culturally Speaking: Food, Clothing and Art in Métis Culture

Event Description

Food and clothing represent more than basic needs, their make-up, design and presentation tell us much about the people who produce them and the environment in which they live. Artisan and Interpreter Janis Laboucane explores some issues of Métis identity and  reveals the ways in which the moose, caribou and the deer influence Métis food, clothing and art, in this month’s Culturally Speaking presentation series.
