We are so grateful. It’s been five years since Syrian refugees first arrived in Canada. Over 1,000 Syrian refugees have moved to Saskatoon since then. A story by Mandy Vocke, Global News:

It has been five years since Syrian refugees began moving to Canada seeking a better life. Many have found success as they adjust to life in a new country.

There are still some tickets left to this not-to-be-missed crowd/media favourite play "I, Frida". The coming-of-age story of young South-American refugee arriving with her family in Saskatoon. Make sure to bring your teenager to see this play rated 13+. Btw, if you work with youth or in the settlement and cultural sector, you will really enjoy this play!

Please make sure to save the date.

In the spirit of reconciliation, it is important to promote the sharing of cultures and cultural practices. We believe that this event can foster appreciation and support of the Métis artistic and cultural life.
