Come out to the We Are All Treaty People Celebration on Sunday, September 15 at the Forks Centre Field in Winnipeg! A Pipe and Water ceremony will start at 12 noon, followed by performances and activities from 1-4 p.m. All are welcome.
Enjoy an afternoon of music and dance by Indigenous and non-Indigenous performers, information about Treaties, Indigenous arts and crafts, free food, family-friendly games and fun!
Featuring:

... and more!
The event is an opportunity for settlers and newcomers to join together with Indigenous People in celebrating the kinship relationship forged by the signing of the Treaties, to share in the richness of these cultures through the arts, and to honour the Treaty commitment to share the land together in a good way.
A limited number of vendor tables will be available for Indigenous artisans and crafters.
