Share Your Voice!

To foster greater inclusivity within galleries and institutions, IndigiQueers is requesting input from IndigiQueer and Two-Spirit artists and curators. A short ten-question survey aims to gather experiences and perspectives that will inform the development of more supportive and accountable policies for IndigenousQueer individuals. Insights and examples of community activation from Two-Spirit artists and curators are especially valuable to this initiative.

Complete the IndigiQueers survey with your input.

The ICCA has an opportunity for a Keela expert to contribute to the improvement of its membership management system. Responsibilities include auditing the current setup, identifying inefficiencies, and reconfiguring the platform to streamline member data tracking and enhance accessibility for members.

The Tiohtià:ke Project!

The Tiohtià:ke Project, a significant initiative by the Indigenous Curatorial Collective (ICCA) that ran from 2017 to 2019, continues to resonate. Named after the Kanien’kéha word for Montreal, meaning “where nations divide,” the project fostered unity and visibility among Indigenous artists, curators, and writers across Quebec and Canada through exhibitions, residencies, and performances. Its lasting impact includes the publication D’horizons et d’estuaires: entre mémoires et créations autochtones and the inspiration for the ICCA’s Digital Publications Program.

This marks the beginning of the ICCA’s initiative to build a comprehensive archive for sharing cultural knowledge. Explore the curated publications to deepen your understanding.
