Mindjíminindiwin ashidji odábanenskewin: Traditional Anishinaabe Ash Sled Making with Guardians

"The guardian program is important for workshops like this because it provides a safe space for traditional knowledge to be shared."

Kitigan Zibi (Nagadjitòdjig Akì) and Pikwàkanagàn Guardians met to learn traditional ash sled-making together, strengthening kinship between sister Nations and reconnecting with shared Anishinaabe knowledge and practices. This workshop is one more example of how Guardians programs are helping create more space for cultural revitalization.
