The Nitsitapii Landscapes tour program by Galt Museum & Archives | Akaisamitohkanao’pa, in collaboration with Siksikaitsitapi Elders, offers residential school survivors and their descendants opportunities to connect with sacred sites through traditional practices. Supported by the Mother Tongue Fund, this series of five workshops includes transportation, refreshments, and guidance from Male and Female Elders at various sites across southern Alberta, involving some walking across uneven terrain. We will visit Napiootsisti kowanhpi and play traditional hand games and share stories of the area.

These workshops are free, registration is required. We have a limit of 40 spaces open to Residential School Survivors and their descendants.
