Tipi Build – Drop-in Project with Rory Wakemup
November 18 @ 2:00 pm - November 23 @ 7:00 pm
Join Rory Wakemup and his team at the Rail River Folk School during the week of November 18 – 23 to learn canvas tipi construction.
No prior skills required. This is an open workshop for anyone who wants to learn or observe the process of constructing a life-sized canvas tipi. Rory and his team will give hands-on guidance for all ages. Drop in any day/time between noon and 4pm and stay as long as you want.
Wakemup is currently exhibiting his mixed media show Smart Wars – Fighting for Gaa-miinigoowiziyang – “What we were given” in the Miikanan Gallery at Watermark through November 22, 2024.
This workshop is co-sponsored with the Indigenous Environmental Network (IEN).
This activity is made possible by the voters of Minnesota through a grant from the Minnesota State Arts Board, thanks to a legislative appropriation from the arts and cultural heritage fund.
