10:30 am to 12:30 pm

Join us in learning how to make your very own deer hide rattle. Many Indigenous communities use rattles in ceremony, for singing or as gifts. In this two-day workshop you will learn the traditional ways of sewing, shaping and decorating your rattles. This is a two-session program as the hide needs time to dry. 

 

This program is for youth ages 10–13. Registration and two-day attendance are required. All materials will be provided. 

Please contact info@nvcl.ca or 604-998-3450 for more information.
