CONVERSATIONS IN BLACKFOOT | VIRTUAL
BEADING WORKSHOP with FAYE HEAVYSHIELD
April 11 | 2 - 3 PM MST | FREE or BY DONATION
LINK TO ATTEND

Join us for an online craft workshop with lead artist Faye HeavyShield. In this session HeavyShield will teach us the skill of beading, while we drink mint tea, and speak and listen to the Blackfoot language together.

Faye HeavyShield is a member of the Blackfoot Confederacy from the Kainaiwa (Blood) Nation in the foothills of Southern Alberta. She is a fluent speaker of the Blackfoot language and studied at the Alberta College of Art and Design in Calgary, Alberta. The language of HeavyShield’s home community, near Stand Off, Alberta, is evident in her continuous use of natural materials and imagery found in her minimalist works.

This workshop will be held online over zoom, and is by suggested donation of $10 - $25. All donations will be offered to the gallery to continue enriching our public programming. Please know you are always welcome to attend this class for free.
