I run a fun activity at my info booths where families can make Métis Sash wall hangings together.
We use cloth to mimic a Métis sash that could be used as a wall hanging.
It sparks creativity and encourages the use of imagination, resembling a small-scale version of the authentic sash weaving practiced by the Métis people.
It’s a hands-on weaving session that’s easy and enjoyable for anyone, from early years to adults.
This activity lets us see how creative the Métis people were and helps us learn about their culture while having a good time as a family.
