Mi’kmaq Cultural Training Day
Digby Pines Hotel, Digby, NS
Monday, November 6, 2023 ← New date!
10 AM – 3 PM
Due to the arrival of Hurricane Lee, and unpredictable wind, rain, and flooding, we have made the decision to move the Mi’kmaq Cultural Training session scheduled for Monday, September 19 in Digby, to Monday, November 6th.
ANSM values inclusivity, and having identified historical and systemic practices in museums, we make decisions to decolonize these practices, and work with museums and equity-deserving groups to find appropriate solutions. This includes education in the communities where our member museums are located.
We invite you to come be a part of an enriching day of education and engagement with Theresa Meuse (First Nations Educator and Advisor) and Roger Lewis (Mi’kmaq Cultural Heritage Curator, Nova Scotia Museum). Conversations will include Culture 101, Truth and Reconciliation, bias in the workplace, how we can work together, and many other thought-provoking subjects.
All are welcome. Please join us and be a part of this meaningful event.
