On Sunday October 4th, please join us for Sisters in Spirit, a vigil to honour Missing and Murdered Indigenous Women, Girls and 2-Spirit+ folks.
Sisters in Spirit vigils were started by the Native Women’s Association of Canada and held across the country as a way to hold space for families and communities to grieve and to call for justice for Indigenous women, girls and gender-diverse folks.
We’ll gather at the Sacred Fire for speakers, drumming, art-making, and a candlelight walk through an installation of red dresses, symbolizing the absence of the people we’ve lost to violence.
All are welcome. Folks with hand drums are encouraged to bring them. Friends and family members are invited to bring photos and/or names to add to a memorial board if they wish.
Hosted by G-W Women in Crisis, Guelph Indigenous Community Council and Guelph Wellington Ontario Health Team.
📆 October 4
⏰5-7:30pm
