CHRISTINE'S BLOG

Welcome! I love to write, and I love sharing what I write with my readers. I vary my style as much as I can-posting events, creative non-fiction, prose and poetry and the occasional video. Enjoy!

Event Posting: Anishinaabewin 6: Pakwis Baa-Niimi- Friday March 13, 2015 to Saturday March 14, 2013

The sixth annual Anishinaabewin culture conference, celebrating all things Anishinaabe. Presented by the Ojibwe Cultural Foundation. Open to all!

Friday, March 13 to Saturday, March 14, 2015.
Holiday Inn on Regent St, Sudbury

March is the crusted snow time, Naabdin Giizis, when Nenbosh’s brother Pakwis momentarily dances around us in little swirling gusts of snow. Anishinaabe say, “Pakwis baa-niimi,” Pakwis is dancing. He is teasing us, watching and waiting to catch an easy meal. Pakwis is the jester, the storyteller, the outcast, observer of nature, and patron of the arts. This year we gather at Anishinaabewin to honor all of these traditions.

Registration: $250 both days, $135 single day
Students and Elders: $140 both days, $75 single day
