About the Exhibition on view March 2 - 24, 2024
Response: All Woven Together is the culmination of the Response program, an annual film program that inspires ways of responding artistically to historical and contemporary Indigenous ways of being. Participants engaged in a series of workshops led by Indigenous artists and Knowledge Holders during the summer of 2023 to produce an original video work.

Inspired by the depth of connection that is felt through shared stories and experiences, participants were encouraged to engage with the theme of interconnection in ways that consider the relationships we hold, and the strength, reciprocity, and care that can be derived from them.
