Event Description
Since this past fall, a group of Indigenous youth from the Victoria region have been meeting at Open Space to participate in a series of studio sessions. Guided by a committed group of artist mentors, the youth engaged in a variety of activities: they met with visiting artists, participated in guided tours by Elders, and made work to present in a pop-up shop during the holiday season. Gifts from Our Ancestors is an exhibition and series of events opening Friday, March 7, at 7:00 p.m., and continuing to Saturday, April 12, 2014. Gifts from Our Ancestors follows up on the studio sessions and presents an opportunity for the youth to exhibit work alongside their mentors, visiting artists, and elders.
