Orange Shirt Day Mini Powwow

​Join us in honouring Orange Shirt Day and the National Day for Truth and Reconciliation with a heartfelt Mini Powwow that celebrates Indigenous culture, resilience, and community. This gathering is a space for reflection, healing, and unity as we remember the children impacted by residential schools and recognize the ongoing journey toward reconciliation.

Experience the power of traditional drumming, dancing, and storytelling, and connect with local members of the Indigenous community beyond Durham College. Everyone is welcome!

This event will be held OUTDOORS in the Naanaagide’endamowin (Art of Thinking) Courtyard, adjacent to the CFCE building. In the event of rain, the rain location will be announced.

If you plan on joining us for lunch, please secure your lunch ticket HERE. No other part of the event requires registration. Drop in for one or two activities, or join us for the whole day! Whatever your schedule allows!
