It was an Indigenous cultural explosion at Red River College Polytechnic, as staff, students, and community members gathered for an event showcase — in partnership with RBC Future Launch — celebrating art and culture on Wednesday afternoon.

“Everything is just come together so wonderfully and there’s such a great turnout,” said Terri-Lynn Anderson, events coordinator of Indigenous Student Supports at Red River College Polytechnic.

“It feels wonderful, honestly, because I know there’s a lot of indigenous people that haven’t grown up with their culture myself as well. So it just feels really nice to be able to showcase all of the indigenous talent that we have here in this city. And for everyone to see.”

The event was held in the Manitou a bi Bii daziigae building, and featured Indigenous entrepreneurs and local talent sharing their cultures and work with those in attendance through food, fashion, and music including a performance by Juno Awards Nominee Indian City.
