Posted: November 5, 2024

Anglophone North School District is very proud to partner with the Canadian Museum for Human Rights to present the impactful Witness Blanket Exhibit. This is the first time the exhibit has visited Eastern Canada.

 

The following is found on the website www.witnessblanket.ca : “Inspired by a woven blanket, the Witness Blanket is a large-scale work of art. It contains hundreds of items reclaimed from residential schools, churches, government buildings and traditional and cultural structures from across Canada.”

 

Hundreds of ASD-N students have visited the exhibit over recent days.

 

Now it will be open for the public to visit on Wednesday, November 6th, from 6:00 – 9:00 p.m. at the Miramichi Valley High School Mezzanine in Miramichi. Please use the Gym Entrance. Admission is free.

 

All are welcome to visit this moving and historical exhibit.
