Don’t miss the second day of our festival! Join us for an incredible screening of short films by Bawaadan Collective.

Bawaadan Collective presents the film series, featuring three contemporary retellings of Hodinöhsö:ni’ stories told in the Gayogo̱hó꞉nǫʼ (Cayuga) language: Corn Husk Doll, How the Medicine Came to the People, and Hato:’. Developed through community collaboration with Gayogo̱hó꞉nǫʼ speakers and learners from Six Nations of the Grand River, these films are designed as accessible and engaging language resources, fostering community storytelling practices.

Enjoy lunch, film screenings, and a Q&A panel talk afterward!
 Tickets: $15 per person (space is limited!)
