N. Saskatchewan Arts and Culture Handbook Registered Artist Raffle

The Northern Saskatchewan Arts and Culture Handbook (2011) is soon its way to the printer.

Over 60 artists from eighteen different northern communities have registered.

All registered artists entered a raffle to win a three hundred dollar gift certificate. We have a winner!

Congratulations to Miranda Henderson of Little Red River Indian Reserve (Lac La Ronge Indian Band).

Miranda had participated in the registry because she was attracted by the exposure she would receive through the handbook and to share her passion with other First Nation artists across Saskatchewan.
