The impact of the festival reaches well beyond entertainment; it has communicated a very significant message about the importance of celebrating Aborigi- nal culture. It arouses a far deeper understanding and powerful affirmation of Aboriginal cultural rebirth and renewal. It showcases the talents, gifts and abilities of Aboriginal artists from all nations. It is truly a celebration of Aboriginal music, arts, culture and heritage not seen before by the broader public through the many festival events. The Festival has established a number of groundbreaking legacies and demonstrates that Aboriginal culture is fresh, contemporary and, above all, relevant in a contemporary world. The name Manito Ahbee references a sacred site located in Manitoba’s Whiteshell Provincial Park, where First Nations gather to share teachings and perform ceremony. Manito Ahbee means “ where the Creator sits.” There are a number of petroforms at this special site, including one in the shape of the turtle that is used in the Manito Ahbee logo. Since the festival is a continental event, the turtle also represents Turtle Island, which is another name for North America. wElcoME to thE MAnIto AhbEE FEstIvAl! 4 • 2015 FESTival pRogRaM welcome Greetings & welcome! The ManiTo ahbee FesTival celebraTes 10 years! lisa Meeches Executive Director – The Manito Ahbee Festival In 2006 the dream of the Manito Ahbee Festival came true as we celebrated the inaugural event that touched the hearts and spirits of all who participated. The Aboriginal Peoples Choice Music Awards were born (now the IMA) and the International Pow Wow’s first grand entry took place in the MTS Centre, and all who attended knew, this was something very special and spiritual. Ten years later, as we continue to honour the sacred site, Manito Ahbee – where the creator sits, our bond as a community with no borders has reached an ultimate high and we should all be very proud of what we have accomplished. Embracing our history and anticipating the excitement of the future, as we continue to break new ground and strengthen lasting relationships, is what the festival is all about. Welcome back, elders, friends, & family into the circle of the Manito Ahbee Festival.

    Blues Underground Network David Gogo "Christmas With The Blues" (Canada) I will be the first to admit that I really like the good old fashioned Christmas songs, White Christmas, Twelve Days Of Christmas, Chestnuts Roasting on an Open Fire, and countless others, sung by the greats Bing Crosby, Nat King Cole, Gene Autry, Perry Como, and Jose Feliciano, to name just a few. I also really like the modern day artists that have stepped forward, putting a little polish on the old standards or offering up their own originals, such as David Gogo's absolutely amazing new release, "Christmas With The Blues", which offers up 9 blues inspired Tracks of both standards and originals. Now David Gogo would certainly not have been my first thought as someone whom would of put out a Christmas Album, in fact he never thought he would either, never the less, he has and boy it quickly has become a favorite around here this Christmas Season and will for many more to come. Using his superb Vocals and amazing stinging Guitar work, David Gogo slices through 9 Tracks as effortlessly as a hot knife slicing through butter, but it isn't just Gogo that brings the magic to this little gem, it is also the stellar lineup of artists he brought along with him on this journey, which included greats Bill Hicks (Drums), Marisha Devoin (Acoustic Stand-Up Bass), David Vest (Piano), Phil Dwyer (Saxophones and Piano on Track 5), Jay Stevens (Bass on Track 9), Tina Jones & Camille Miller (Vocals Track 9), and Shawn Hall (Harmonica).

  • Indigenous History Month Week 2 Music & Musicians
    Indigenous History Month: Week 2: Music & Musicians Donna Wright, an Elder who works with many students in our school district, describes drumming and singing as a way of ‘opening the channel from our hearts to the Creator’. The teachings around the drum and singing are sacred to Indigenous Peoples. The teachings are different from nation to nation, but one thing that threads all the teachings together is that drumming and singing connects us all to the heartbeat of Mother Earth. Jesse tells of a teaching of a story of the first drum sound that we hear as humans is that of our mother when we are in the womb. That life-giving heartbeat is a drum beat. Everyone who is reading this has a heartbeat. We are all connected through that heartbeat of Mother Earth. When we hear drumming and singing from nation to nation, we can hear the land, the animals, the waters of where that nation is located on Turtle Island. When we hear drumming from the West Coast, we hear the waves. The high winds from the Prairies are heard in songs from Plains Peoples. Inuit drumming echoes across the tundra. The songs of Great Lakes peoples resound through the deep forests. The dance of the Metis people is a heartbeat of the land. Again, the cultural and spiritual expression of singing, drumming, and dance was something that was systemically and forcibly taken from Indigenous Peoples from sea to sea by Canadian Federal Government Policy and Law. Many ceremonies and dances went underground. Tribes had tactics that allowed them to hide their cultural practices from the Indian Agent and the RCMP and resist being arrested for practicing ceremony and dance.

  • Announces the Line-Up Of
    For Immediate Release: September 17, 2019 • Please include in your listings/announcements announces the line-up of TORONTO, ON – Native Earth Performing Arts is thrilled to announce the 32nd annual Weesageechak Begins to Dance. This year’s festival invites emerging, mid-career, and established Indigenous artists from across Turtle Island and Australia to develop and showcase contemporary theatre, dance, and multi-disciplinary creations on November 13 to 23, 2019 at Aki Studio (585 Dundas St East). The festival opens with a music performance by contemporary roots songwriter Mimi O’Bonsawin (Abenaki), who was recently won Best Pop Album at the 2019 Indigenous Music Awards. Heavily influenced by her mixed heritage, her music embodies the powerful scenery of Northern Ontario and the beauty of its waters. Following O’Bonsawin’s soulful performance is the staged reading of Sonny’s Way by Jimmy Blais (Plains Cree), who originally developed the play at The National Theatre School’s Indigenous Artist in Residence program. Inspired by acclaimed writer James Baldwin’s Sonny’s Blues, Blais’ new play highlights the opioid crisis through the story of two brothers who try to reconnect after many years apart. The first week of the festival features theatrical creations-in-development by artists who are new to Weesageechak. Zach Running Coyote (Nehiyaw) shares a Greyhound Vision Quest through the spirit world in a virtuosic folk musical performance of Kohkum & me. Christopher Mejaki (Ojibwe/Odawa) tells a compelling story about a young man living in poverty who turns to dealing drugs as a way of survival in You the Guy?, which was developed at Native Earth’s 2019 Mskomini Giizis Summer Residency.

  • Glass Beads for Teachers
    GLASS BEADS FOR TEACHERS A small collection of images of beads and beadwork serves as a context for further investigation and study of how HBC, through its trade with First Nations, was a major contributor to Canada’s story. Information about Glass Beads • Beading is a craft that has been practised by almost every culture in the world. • Glass beads were highly valued by the First Nations because they were durable and came in a wide variety of colours. • Before glass beads arrived on the scene, the First Nations were accustomed to using pieces of bone, shell or rock to adorn their clothing. Quillwork using dyed porcupine quills was also popular. • HBC sourced beads from Europe specifically for the trade. They introduced glass beads from Venice, the Czech Republic, the Netherlands, and Germany to the First Nations in exchange for provisions or simply to gain their goodwill. • Beads were a staple of the trade right up to the modern period. Seed beads were the most popular over time. • The First Nations incorporated the beads into a well-established tradition of craft, custom and beliefs. • Beads became common items to offer in gift exchanges when alliances and treaties were formed. • The First Nations adapted European materials to their traditional ways of making clothing and accessories, substituting cloth for hide, beads for quillwork, and silk ribbon appliqué for painted designs. • Native beading became something of a commodity in the Victorian period. First Nations began a craft tradition of making beaded items for commercial sale back to non-natives • Starting in the early 1800s, the First Nations developed beaded souvenirs.
