Indigenous art installations set to be unveiled at three Wallaceburg Catholic schools – Sydenham Current
May 9, 2025
A powerful celebration of culture, creativity, and reconciliation will unfold across three St. Clair Catholic schools on Monday, May 12, 2025, as students and community members gather to unveil collaborative Indigenous art installations created with prominent Anishinaabe artists.
The installations are the result of months of work between students and artists Cedric Isaac of Bkejwanong Territory, John Williams of Aamjiwnaang First Nation, and Moses Lunham of Kettle and Stony Point First Nation. Each piece tells a unique story, rooted in the identity of its school and enriched by shared learning, respect for the land, and the voices of those who call it home.
The unveiling celebrations will take place at Holy Family, Christ the King, and St. Elizabeth Catholic Schools, with each event incorporating prayer, music, and remarks from the artists. A short video will also be screened at each school, documenting the collaborative creative process and the relationships formed along the way.
