Aboriginality
Aboriginality re-imagines the strength and spirit of First Nations culture through narrative mediums that connect urban First Nations youth to their rural ancestral histories. Dallas Arcand, world champion hoop dancer and hip-hop artist, is inspired by both new and traditional elements of First Nations culture. He plays dual roles in being both a positive First Nations presence in mainstream urban media and a touchstone to traditional First Nations roots and culture.

The Powwow. An Art History
The Powwow: An Art History was published to support an exhibition at the MacKenzie Art Gallery. The objective behind the exhibit was to attempt to bring together the history of Native American painting and powwow from the end of the 19th century to the end of the 20th century. Various styles and artists were selected to help illustrate the powwow and related performances to present a survey of the developments and movements in First Nations painting. The book includes a history of the powwow and the role of singers, drummers, dancers and costumes. Reproductions of the artworks of many First Nations artists are featured. This resource is valuable as support for the cultural/historical component of arts education.

That Incredible State
This video explores the precious period where notions and attitudes take shape in a child's mind, where questions come in waves, and the answers do not always make sense. Several visual artists, writers, and musicians recollect a time or an incident from their childhood that changed the way in which they looked at the world. They face some of their childhood fears again, while paddling around Saskatchewan lakes, walking across frozen dugouts, or facing the limitless, wide-open spaces of their youth. These memories are paired with the insightful, humorous and often surprising answers that children gave to some very important questions.

Haydyn's Farewell Symphony
Celenza's story is a delightful introduction to Joseph Haydn, his Farewell Symphony and 18th century life. Joseph Haydn served as personal composer for Prince Nicholas of Esterhazy for nearly 30 years. He composed music as requested by the prince, was responsible for the care of all instruments and served as spokesperson for the members of the orchestra. Summers were spent at the prince's summer estate in Hungary and one summer as autumn approached, the musicians were growing increasingly homesick. Prince Nicholas refused to return home and he also refused Haydn's request to have the musicians' families visit. Haydn decided to appeal to the prince through his Symphony in F-Sharp Major, which reflects the musician's anger, sadness and frustration. When Prince Nicholas heard the symphony, he was so moved that he decided to return home. The striking watercolour-and-ink cartoons with simple lines and exaggerated characterizations convey a sense of the excess and finery of the period. There are notes on both 18th century form and instruments, as well as on the events and personalities in the story.
