Through my work at the NWT Art Centre Initiative, we hosted two public gatherings in June focussed on the history and legacy of Akaitcho Hall, a residential school in Yellowknife.

Woman’s dress as envisioned by Dakota/Anishinaabe, Metis artist, Lisa Fontaine.

From Lisa Fontaine’s Winyan (Dakota word for “woman”) at The Winnipeg Art Gallery until June 8. ‘Fontaine’s work centers and celebrates the beauty of Indigenous femininities as a resistance to heteropatriarchal and colonial practices.’ Stunning works.

Can't wait for North of North season 2!

It's May in the subarctic and we just had a winter storm. When warm weather comes, it'll be a fast transition to summer. ☀️

You know the Northern lights were popping when I could see them with my glasses off 🙃

As a therapist I worry about the way that current conceptualizations of mental health uphold the status quo by pathologizing individuals instead of viewing suffering as an inevitable consequence of our systems. Liberation psychology gestures towards the paradigm shift we need.

For those who saw the Barbie movie, we are coming up to the Mojo Dojo Casa House part.

The cringe of a thousand serenades.

I just heard Jared Monkman on CBC North say it's going to be +5 in Fort Good Hope today. That's wild, it should be like -40 this time of year

I went to a very fun painting class last night at Saxifrage Studio. I love this corner with a little fried egg and a string of Les Thompson red devil lures, maybe?

Thanks for doing an update on our work, @cabinradio.ca

Love my fortune for today
