SUMMARY:Guest Speaker: Manitoba Access Awareness Week
DESCRIPTION:Join Cree Filmmaker & Storyteller Julianna Maggrah as she shares stories of growing up on Kitsaki Reserve near La Ronge\, Saskatchewan — often feeling isolated and like an outsider looking in\, due to the intense way she experienced the world around her. It wasn’t until Julianna was diagnosed with autism in her late twenties and began connecting with her Indigenous culture\, that she started to understand herself better. \n\nLearning about Indigenous perspectives of autism including pîtoteyihtam – a Cree word meaning “those who think differently” and Māori teachings that honour the strengths and unique ways people with autism move through the world “in their own time and space”\, opened the door for Julianna to accept and embrace the parts of who she is that she long felt the need to suppress. \n\nAll are invited to attend! \n\nWhile registration to attend is not required\, it is helpful for us to know approximately how many people may be in attendance. If you are planning to attend\, please take a moment to let us know by completing this form. MAAW 2026 – Event Form

SUMMARY:Rattle: A Sixties Scoop Play (Winnipeg event)
DESCRIPTION:Root Sky Theatre\, in association with Theatre Incarnate\, is proud to premiere Rattle: A Sixties Scoop Play at the University of Winnipeg’s Asper Centre for Theatre & Film\, June 3 – 7\, 2026. Rattle is based on the true stories of Sixties Scoop survivors Robert Doucette and Roberta MacKinnon. \nDan and Bobbie have lived on the same North End street for decades and consider themselves family. They also share a similar history – both were taken from their Indigenous mothers as small children and adopted out into white families. They lost their family\, their culture\, their identity. Dan\, now working for a Métis organization\, has faced his past and is fighting for the future of fellow Sixties Scoop survivors. Bobbie is not so sure she wants to know why her mother gave her up as a newborn infant. Both their lives\, and their families’\, will be changed in unexpected ways as they struggle to understand who they are and where they belong. Rattle received an award for Best Full-Length Play in the Theatre BC Canadian National Playwriting Competition for 2022. \nIt is the fourth in a series of plays by Brandon University professors Darrell Racine and Dale Lakevold that explores Indigenous culture and history in Canada. \nPerformances:\n7:30 p.m. nightly (June 3 — 6)\n2 p.m. matinee (June 6 — 7) \nSharing Circle for Survivors & Those Affected: \nJune 3 — 5 (2 — 4 p.m.) / June 6 — 7 (10 a.m. — 12 noon) \nVenue:\nAsper Centre for Theatre and Film\n400 Colony St.\, Winnipeg MB Tickets:\n$25 | $35 If You Can | $10 Limited Income \nBUY TICKETS
