Join us on National Indigenous Peoples Day for a special screening of nanekawâsis, a documentary spanning four decades of Indigenous artist George Littlechild's storied career.

As a two-spirit person and '60s scoop survivor, Littlechild's artwork draws from a unique perspective of pain, joy, and exemplary merit. Through archival footage and new interviews, this documentary gives viewers the opportunity to get to know a major player in the Indigenous art world, while highlighting the impacts of colonialism in Canada on both art and artist.

Please be advised: This film is rated PG and contains artistic representations of nudity.
