Land Acknowledgement

This show happens on the traditional territory of the Mississaugas of the Credit, the Anishnabeg, the Chippewa, the Haudenosaunee, and the Wendat people, and the current home of many diverse First Nations, Inuit, and Métis people.

Our team consists of a child of immigrants, and an immigrant to Canada, so we are particularly grateful to the traditional caretakers of this land, where we live, tell and hear stories. You can learn a bit more about the richly developed tradition of indigenous storytelling here, and donate to the Native Canadian Centre of Toronto here.
