Dragonfly Spirit CreeAtions Nominated for Indigenous Tourism Award: The Entrepreneurial Journey Behind the Recognition – Indigenous Sme

November 21, 2024

The Canadian Tourism Awards, presented by the Tourism Industry Association of Canada (TIAC), recognize some of the most promising up-and-coming, and established businesses and organizations in the Canadian tourism industry. This recognition is no small feat, especially for Indigenous Tourism Award nominee Monique Collins and her business Dragonfly Spirit CreeAtions, which started as a passion project in April 2023.

Inspired by her grandmother’s teachings, Monique first began running Indigenous Moon events and cultural programs in the tipi at Rig Hand Distillery in Leduc County, Alberta. Here, she started to share ancestral wisdom and offer a way for people to connect with Cree culture, the land, and each other through drumming and community-building.

“Our approach integrates ancient wisdom with contemporary holistic practices to create a transformative experience for each individual. We believe in the power of healing through cultural connection and the deepening of spiritual practices,” describes the Dragonfly Spirit CreeAtions website.
