Métis Youth Culture Camp

The Métis Nation of Alberta (MNA) is hosting its first Métis Youth Culture Camp, July 15-20. The camp is free for a limited number of MNA youth citizens who are between the ages of 13 and 17. Throughout the week, campers sleep in trapper tents, participate in a canoe expedition from Métis Crossing to Victoria Settlement, take part in harvesting and hide-tanning workshops, voyageur games, and of course, learn cultural activities such as finger-weaving, beading and dance. The goal: For youth to build valuable connections and leave the camp with a more positive and whole sense of identity and belonging. The registration deadline is June 15.  Learn more  |  Posters  |  Camper registration
