Michif Medicines

An international Indigenous collaboration between
V’ni Dansi and Dancing Earth
.

Led by V’ni Dansi Artistic Director Yvonne Chartrand and Dancing Earth Artistic Director Rulan Tangen, this contemporary dance collaboration culminated in a work-in-progress presentation at the Talking Stick Festival in February 2018 & 2019.

The development of Michif Medicines involved consultations with Elders and cultural keepers. Respect for cultural protocols and ways of knowing are fundamental aspects of creation.
