Private Workshop – Engagement and Collaboration for Cultural Workers

This workshop is for Indigenous or Canadian organizations whose primary mandate is to present visual or media art*, as well as independent cultural workers (curator, consultant, researcher, etc). We highly encourage organizations to register at least two participants, so knowledge is shared within the organization. Participants may include board and/or staff from the organization.

Workshop Details

The workshop will cover:

• Guidance for respecting Indigenous Knowledge

• Differences between Indigenous and Canadian Intellectual Property Systems 

• Learning about Indigenous Protocols - what are they? How do I use them when engaging with Indigenous people and cultural materials?

• Practices to avoid - cultural appropriation, stereotypes, tokenism

• Best practices and considerations for collaboration with an Indigenous Artist or Knowledge Keeper

• Considerations for Events and Openings

Fees

The cost of a private workshop is $850. Registration fees are non-refundable.

*If your organization has a different kind of mandate (government department, academic institutions, art service organizations, etc), contact us about alternative options and opportunities.
