More Information Register/Tickets


Kalyn Kodiak, aapihkayhk sayncheur flayshii (Michif sash weaver). A proud Métis and two-spirit person, Kalyn is descended from a lineage of healers, teachers and artists.

Create a custom sayncheur flayshii (sash) on an artisan hand loom and you get to keep the loom too. We will start with an overview of the culture and history of the Metis sash. Kalyn will lead you through the design, warping, & weaving processes to create your custom sash from start to finish. Weaving takes place on a rigid heddle hand loom. The loom can be used to create other fabrics and patterns up to 10 inches wide.
