A few photos of the Cree Literacy Network in action in Edmonton for a workshop on development of 21st Century Tools for Indigenous Languages. Wonderful discussions around Cree language, linguistics, and helping build tools that will support them! Hoping to get out in a bit to join the National Aboriginal Day celebrations.

Dawn Marie Marchand lectures volunteers who will help interpret her residential school-releated art installation "A Place to Hang  Your Stories" at The Works Visual Arts Festival in downtown Edmonton. Showing one of Dawn Marie's "Sky Ponies" paintings to Florida Thunder, who told me to take good care of the painting, because those are spirit horses. Meeting new colleagues - greeting old friends - from First Nations University, University of Alberta, Carleton, and Tromsø. photo 1 UofA has manufactured a new cover for the tipi donated to them by Florida Thunder. It sits just outside Dorothy's office in Pembina Hall. Stepping up to Dorothy's window to say good morning, I found this one small carpet bugle blossom - the only one in bloom so far - reaching out to Dorothy's window. Saturday morning - Day 4, but still working hard. Trying to imagine the day when we're not *still* talking about verbs! lol! NatAbDayEdm
