The Indigenous Peoples’ Centre team is planning an event to raise awareness of Missing and Murdered Indigenous Women, Girls and 2 Spirit people.
Beginning at 11 a.m., there will be a fire and speakers at the Ceremonial Firepit in the courtyard. Red dresses be hanged from the trees on 18th St.
The idea to hang red dresses comes from the Red Dress Project by Jaime Black. This is an installation art project based on an aesthetic response to this critical national issue. Further information in the art project is available at JamieBlackArtist.com/exhibitions.
Event poster features a red hands and images of people in red dresses
