Fort Edmonton Park: Indigenous Peoples Experience

Step into a vivid panorama of First Nations' and Métis peoples' rich histories, vibrant cultures, and compelling narratives, nestled snugly in the heart of the Beaver Hills, known as the Edmonton region. The exhibit involves over fifty Indigenous elders, historians, educators, and community members. Every tale, melody, piece of artwork, and written word is covered with authentic Indigenous perspectives. Everything is diligently amassed through heartfelt dialogues with local Indigenous communities, historically significant documents, and rigorous research. These age-old narratives, teachings, and memories, handed down over numerous generations, illustrate a kaleidoscope of a resilient past and a deep-rooted connection to the land and its ever-changing seasons. Whether articulated in the languages of Cree, Dene, Anishinaabe, Nakota, Blackfoot, or Michif, this communal wisdom is ageless.
