AN INDIGENOUS AUDIO TOUR OF THE NIAGARA GLEN: REKINDLING ALL OUR NATIONS

Curated and produced by Michele-Elise Burnett and audio-engineered by William Riech Jr., Rekindling All Our Relations combines musical compositions from renowned Indigenous artists with rich narratives incorporating Indigenous teachings that encourage a deeper connection with the natural world and unique environmental features of the Niagara Glen. Both Michele-Elise and her son William carry with them a profound respect for their heritage and a commitment to honouring the teachings of their ancestors, which has translated into this deeply authentic and unique audio tour experience, the first of its kind in Canada. Rekindling All Our Relations has been made possible through generous support from the Niagara Parks Foundation, Indigenous Tourism Ontario and the Federal Economic Development Agency of Ontario.
