Thinking of the land as a teacher and a source of infinite knowledge leads to powerful revelations.
When we look at plants, wind, or water, we can learn many things that will help us be good friends, family members, and community members throughout our lives.
Youth ages 13–19 are invited to join Chiskutamaachesuu (teacher), a 2-day collaging workshop where they will honour the land and its teachings through intentional art-making.
The workshop takes place on 13 + 20 September, 2025.
Géorgie Gagné, founder of Géorgie Gagné (Communities & Solidarity), is a multi award-winning, mixed heritage Cree and franco-québécoise artist, educator, facilitator, and advocate, dedicated to infusing intersectional approaches, Indigenous ways of knowing, intentionality and care within communities around Turtle Island. Through facilitation and community-building initiatives, she continuously creates thoughtful and transformative learning experiences that center 2Spirit resilience, intersectionality and decolonization practices within artistic, academic, advocacy, and nonprofit environments. With years of involvement within nonprofits and social justice movements, Géorgie has developed knowledge and expertise that supports her in creating affirming and empowering spaces for BIPGM and 2SLGBTQIA+ individuals. Her art practice focuses on physical and digital collage, beadwork, photography, and graphic design. Géorgie’s art aims to create audacious conversations on topics of 2Spirit identities, transness, interconnectivity, dignity, ruptures, and resilient love. She’s been lucky to have her work featured in and collaborate with organizations such as Modern Fuel Artist-Run Centre, Union Gallery, McCord-Stewart Museum, Agnes Etherington Art Centre, and others.
