Indigenous Language Series With Matthew Stevens
Ontario Culture Days has partnered with Scugog Arts to present a 4-part series of videos on Indigenous language, hosted by Matthew Stevens and the Mississaugas of Scugog Island First Nation.
These videos are part of Ontario Culture Days’ Creative Residency program.
The Mississaugas of Scugog Island First Nation are a branch of the greater Ojibwa Nation, one of the largest Indigenous groups in Canada. They moved into southern Ontario from their former homeland north of Lake Huron around the year 1700.
Matthew Stevens is the host of this 4-part language series that teaches the meaning behind key Anishinaabe words, painting a picture of how they have shaped language today.
Each new segment will be released Thursdays throughout the Culture Days festival.
This program is supported by the Ontario Arts Council
