Soil for the Soul at the Learning Garden
On October 10, we will install the soil paintings on the raised planter boxes in the Riley Park Learning Garden. Kathara Indigenous Arts Collective will guide participants in a ceremony to honour place and relationship. Kathara brings ancestral land based ceremonies of indigenous Filipino inspired rituals that connect the spirits/ancestors to the Unceded Coast Salish lands, creating opportunities and experiences for those in the diaspora to learn music, agriculture dance, and rituals that bless and deepen the relations between peoples and land.
