Together as a community we are on this journey of reconciliation. The truths of families and survivors of Canadian residential schools have left permanent scars on communities and our nation.

In the spirit of healing and reconciliation, we will gather by the gazebo in King’s Navy Yard Park Saturday, September 27, 2025. Join us and Ska:na Family Learning Centre to learn more about Indigenous culture, and watch demonstrations of dancing, drumming and storytelling.

Learn and listen from Elders and motivational speakers from the community. Children’s activities will take place at the teepee, and Indigenous vendors will be in the park selling products.

What’s happening at this year’s gathering:

• Corn soup and bannock at Park House Museum
• Teachings at the Park House and a film screening
• River Bookshop featured books and art
• Orange cookies at Caffeine and Co.
• Early ON – bracelet making activity and colouring near the teepee
• Drumming at the gazebo
• Vendors & more!

More information coming soon.
