Bakers Narrows Lodge located in Northern Manitoba offers a wealth of interesting things to do. A three-day getaway to discover some native traditions passed on by mouth from generation to generation. This weekend will be a time of discovery, a time of learning and will give you a greater appreciation of the culture of our First Nations people.

You take part in a sculpting clinic guided by world class carver Irvin Head. Irvin will coach you, showing you how to carve soapstone into an intriguing image.

Lisa Head will give a talk on the use of native medicinal herbs and will guide you in the making of your own miniature teepee.

Theresa Wride will guide you as you discover the art of Caribou Hair Tufting. You will take home a wall hanging you’ve done.In addition, we will be entertained by a group of first nation singers doing a traditional chant.
