[BCMA] Webinar Invitation - Layering Stories: Art, Community, and Heritage in the AiRS Tecumseh Project

[Moderated BCMA subscriber listserv]

Hello!


We are delighted to share our upcoming webinar,Layering Stories: Art,
Community, and Heritage in the AiRS Tecumseh Project
<https://heritagebc.ca/events-activities/webinars/>.

This webinar will explore how the Artist in Residence Studio (AiRS) program
bridges art, heritage, and community learning through its Tecumseh
Elementary School project, led by local printmaker Julie McIntyre and the
AiRS team. Through an interview-style conversation between Maria Paula
Arias (Heritage BC) and Maggie Milne (AiRS’s Artistic Director),
participants will gain insights into how artistic practice can deepen our
understanding of place, history, and collective identity.

The Tecumseh project brought together 403 students and 18 teachers in a
year-long exploration of their school’s cultural and environmental
heritage. Through collaborative art-making (ranging from silkscreen banners
to quilt-based expressions of Truth and Reconciliation) students and
teachers engaged with Indigenous knowledge, local history, family memory,
and community storytelling.

Join us on Friday, March 27, 2026 from 12:00 – 1:00pm.
