Treaty Space

WORKSHOP: Session 3 - Porcupine Quillwork Medallions

Thursday, Nov 16 20231 - 4pm

Treaty Space Gallery, 1107 Marginal Rd.

Sign-up required

Join us for the third and final porcupine quillwork session of our 3-part workshop series! Crystal Gloade of Millbrook First Nation will be teaching us how to create porcupine quillwork medallions on birchbark.

Spots are limited, therefore, we are reserving registration for Indigenous participants. Please email avaclarke@nscad.ca if you are non-Indigenous and would like to be added to a waitlist for this event. It is not required to have attended the previous two porcupine workshop sessions.

Sign up here to secure your spot!

This project is part of Seeding and Beading, a Treaty Space Gallery and MAAE thesis initiative funded by Indigenous Youth Roots.
