On the National Day for Truth and Reconciliation, we reflect on how we as a community can embrace and broaden our knowledge of First Nations, Inuit and MĂ©tis peoples. One of the ways we do this is through art, and we are honoured to have beautiful murals designed by Indigenous artists throughout our neighbourhood.
This mural at 616 Broadway was painted in 2019 by participants from RaY inc. (Resource Assistance for Youth) X Art City, and the project was led by Jessica Canard. The mural depicts four figures smudging in a field, representing the diversity of Winnipeg’s West Broadway community. To the left is a map of the city, with its two main rivers prominently visible; the Red River and the Assiniboine.
Every day that we walk past murals like this one we are reminded of the beauty of culture and symbols of resilience of Indigenous Peoples.
