I'll be the solo #LifeCyclesProjectSociety representative at Food Future - Capital Region - General Public W4. Hosted/facilitated by #FutureXplorations Research Group - KPU, at Esquimalt Gorge Park Pavilion.
Join us in an unprecedented island-wide #initiative to build a resilient, #sovereign #FoodSystem rooted in #sustainability and #equity.
This is not just another project. It’s a call to action. Your voice matters. Your lived experience matters. Real change must come from the ground up—and we believe solutions must be shaped by those most impacted.
We are committed to empowering our communities and co-creating a future where everyone has access to healthy, locally-grown #food —no matter the political or economic climate.
This is your moment. Let’s come together. Let’s lead the way.
Join us. Speak up. Be part of the change.
#FreeEvent - please reserve your tickets in advance.

We will be showing all of our ribbon skirts, along with past ribbon skirt workshop participants, at the joint #TruthAndReconciliation special evening event, co-hosted by #SNIWWOC & #KWENCH on September 30th.
Event Info:
SNIWWOC will be hosting our annual Truth and Reconciliation event at KWENCH bringing #community members together for an evening of #education, #togetherness, and #remembrance for Truth and Reconciliation in #VictoriaBC on September 30th 2024, 5:30-7:30pm PST.
#JoinUs to learn about the sacred #Indigenous practice of #RibbonSkirt making and the significance it holds within the Indigenous community. You will have the unique opportunity to view these beautiful skirts made by BC Indigenous/Indigenous BIPOC individuals, and learn about the importance of continuing these traditions.
You will also have the privilege to #WitnessTestimony from #ResidentialSchoolSurvivors, the ones who did not make it as well as for honoring all #IndigenousCommunities.
Truth and Reconciliation, also known as #OrangeShirtDay, is a reminder of what was done in #Canadian history that impacted the #IndigenousPeople, and continues to impact generations of Indigenous communities. On this day we highlight how the conversation needs to be continued as a step for #healing and #reconciliation.
SNIWWOC would like to take this time and day to #honor the people and their #culture that was lost. You will hear from a variety of #IndigenousSpeakers, #CommunityElders, and be witness to #SacredKnowledge, in the #SafeSpace that we will hold for all that would like to be part of this experience.
We are looking forward to seeing everyone, celebrating and giving a voice for those who could not. Light snacks and refreshments will be provided!

I'm going back here soon because I missed getting a shot of the other large #owl #mural on the front of this building.

#Esquimalt township/municipal #PlaceMaking art #mural on Fairview at Devonshire - right beside the old rail line. It's in the industrial area of Esquimalt. If you walk along Galloping Goose pathways, from VicWest by Johnson St Bridge into Esquimalt, you'll see tons of public art paintings - graffiti art & art murals line the regional trail in this area. An ever-changing, outdoors public art gallery. Enjoy a leisurely urban walk, while admiring some urban public art.

This graffiti art mural has a visually, #dizzying effect. There are thousands of words written all over it. The words are all overlapping each other. It would take so very many hours to decipher them all!

This rad #bats & killer #crab art mural was very hard to photograph! It was behind a big fence. I had to slip phone - one hand into fence & try to frame it without a lot of room to do that well. I tried my best! It was quite difficult, especially when rain started to come down heavily.
