The Amiskwaciy History Series is an Indigenous grassroots initiative aimed at building awareness around the often untold Indigenous history of the Edmonton area. Through free monthly educational sessions, the series aims to provide accessible and culturally appropriate education to the public on Indigenous history as lived and told by the people.
