Blackfoot Confederacy Initiative Information Sessions
You’re invited to learn more about the Blackfoot Confederacy Initiative (BFCI) at a series of upcoming information sessions. Guided by the Siksika, Kainai, Piikani and Amskapi Piikani Nations, this initiative is focused on surfacing and documenting Blackfoot stories of Mohkinsstsis through meaningful and sustained engagement with Nation members. Insights from these sessions will help guide future public art initiatives that reflect the stories, histories and values of the Nations.
