A Celebration of Skills, Knowledge and Tradition

Skills, Knowledge and Tradition

We would like to express our gratitude to the artists and contributors who have helped to create these projects to share their skill, knowledge and tradition with youth in the province.

There are many experienced and qualified artists throughout communities across the province, and we encourage anyone who accesses these project descriptions to connect with and involve local Elders, language speakers and knowledge holders to adjust project details to include local practices and tradition.

The complete Indigenous Skills Project Book is available for free download here or you can explore individual project details below.
