pêhonân Series
Now in its sixth year, pêhonân centres around a community of mikiwahps, or tipis, raised on the greenspace south of the Strathcona Community League. Located across 103 Street just east of the main Fringe Festival Grounds, pêhonân offers an opportunity to slow down and experience gathering in a way that reflects Indigenous values of relationship, care, and respect.
Follow our Buffalo Path to reach the new location of pêhonân — a journey of reflection and learning before entering the space.
