De-ICE-olation Online Artist Workshop Series
April 2 - June 21, 2020
In response to the Covid-19 pandemic and the call to self-isolate for the health and safety of all of our community members, Inuit Futures in Arts Leadership, in collaboration with the Inuit Art Foundation, hosted a series of online Inuit artist-led workshops and presentations to help us stay connected, alone together!
Over the course of 12 weeks, Inuit artists from across the north and south led 27 workshops, tutorials, and Q&A sessions on everything from parka making to throat singing, graphic design, beadwork, embroidery, makeup, and more!
Check out the events below for videos and more information about the workshops.
