About

Celebrate Indigenous artistry, language, and collective relationships with the natural world. This special event brings together a panel of Indigenous artists and language carriers whose contributions have enriched the Wildlife Photography of the Year exhibition at ROM.

Through dialogue and reflection, learn more about how language, story, and worldview shape our understanding of animals, land, and water, and how these connections call us to care for future generations. This conversation also honours National Indigenous Languages Day (March 31) and the many Indigenous languages that carry knowledge of the land and our animal relatives.

Light refreshments will be served. The evening includes access to the special exhibition Wildlife Photographer of the Year.
