Mackenzie Brown
Mackenzie Brown’s artistic practice is deeply rooted in her cultural teachings and the guidance of âtayôhkan (spirit guides). Her work often evokes movement and connection to the land, drawing on surrounding landscapes and a belief in the healing power of art to carry forward stories, language and relationships between all living beings.
She is a First Nations Cree woman from the Sturgeon Lake Cree Nation, currently residing in Mohkinsstsis (Calgary). A dynamic and award-winning performer, drummer, entrepreneur, philanthropist and advocate, Mackenzie has dedicated her life to creating meaningful connections through her art, culture and community work. She is the co-founding member of Warrior Women, a performance duo with her mother that drums and teaches internationally, sharing their knowledge with schools, festivals, organizations and communities across the globe.
Mackenzie Brown’s work is featured on the 2026-2027 Centre City Banners.
