PLAIN A.I.R. (FEBRUARY 2021): STORYTELLING MONTH

This February, the Plain A.I.R. artist-in-residence program celebrates Storytelling Month. Co-hosts Dale Mac and Annie Brass have gathered recordings of elders’ wisdom in order to preserve and share stories at a time when older folks are especially at risk during the COVID-19 pandemic. It is more important than ever that we safeguard Indigenous knowledge.⁣
