Come experience an afternoon of artistic expression that explores belonging, acknowledges differences and finds common ground and hope.

The WhereWeStand project paired Indigenous people with non‐Indigenous newcomers to Turtle Island, in what we now call Canada. Working in pairs, they produced creative works that include dance, film, music, theatre and material art. Through these forms of expression, the creators reimagined their relationship with this land and its people.

The CMHR is proud to partner in this opportunity for Manitobans to experience One Land Two Hearts and its unique expressions of identity and belonging. The event will include film screenings, live performances and a discussion, after which questions from participants will be invited.
