The Woodland Cultural Centre is thrilled to announ

The Woodland Cultural Centre is thrilled to announce our new solo-retrospective exhibition, "Melanie Monique Rose: Ii moond difleur - The Flower People".

Melanie Monique Rose is a Metis/Ukrainian visual artist from Regina, Saskatchewan Treaty 4 Territory, a citizen of the Metis Nation of Saskatchewan, and a long-time contributing member of Sâkêwêwak Artists’ Collective Inc. Rose’s work centres on kinship and relationships between the land, ourselves and each other. Through plants and flowers Rose invites transmissions of ancestral knowledge and teachings while also imagining and creating a de-colonial future through the lens of Metis worldviews.

Join us for our opening reception on Saturday April 27 at 2:00pm. Light refreshments and snack will be available. This innovative and inspiring exhibition will be available in the galleries for viewing until June 23, 2024.
