Lynnwood Arts Land Acknowledgement

Lynnwood Arts serves as a dynamic gathering place where community and creativity are celebrated within the Treaty Lands and Territory of the Mississaugas of the Credit First Nation. We acknowledge that we have the responsibility to honour and respect the four directions, the lands, waters, plants, animals, and our ancestors who walked before us.

For thousands of years, Indigenous peoples inhabited and cared for this land. Today we recognize that many First Nations, Metis and Inuit peoples live, work and create here. We offer our respect to the many nations who walked this land in the past, and those who walk it today.

The arts are known to enrich the body, the mind, the heart and the spirit; Lynnwood Arts is committed to sharing the histories, the creations, and the connections of Indigenous communities through the power of the arts and we intend to uphold our commitment to creating and sharing space for these stories to be told.
