StoryShifters – An Exhibition

June 17- Sept 30

Le Musée de Saint-Boniface Museum is pleased to present “StoryShifters”, an exhibition of resilience and reconciliation. “StoryShifters” is the culmination of a four-year-long project  giving voice to the compelling stories of six First Nations and Métis women: Cheryl N Bird, Patricia Caribou, Pauline Hince, Chris Larocque Larsen, Linda Manitowabi, and Victoria McIntosh.

 

Through this process of storytelling, sharing Indigenous knowledge, and creating art together the actions of the group evokes hope and understanding. In the process of telling these stories to others “StoryShifters” aims to bring meaning and a sense of belonging and connection, not only to the artists’ own lives but to the lives of their families and communities.

 

Le Musée de Saint-Boniface Museum is dedicated to preserving and promoting the history of St. Boniface and its surrounding areas. The museum is located on Treaty 1 territory and the homeland of the Métis Nation.
