Traditional Pipe Making

Duration: 2 days
Group Size: Limited to 15 People
Location: Hosted locally in your own community upon request

The ancient Anishinaabe people carried a personal healing pipe in their sacred bundles. Our people almost lost this tradition when government imposed Residential Schools upon our people and forbade the use of our sacred items. This team-building gathering takes participants back in time to learn more about what was once a main item in sacred bundles. We teach sacred laws about the personal healing pipe and use storytelling and examples to share the pipe’s purpose in personal healing. Participants make their own personal healing pipe, then take part in a traditional feasting ceremony.
