We encourage you to take some time to learn more about First Nations, Inuit, and Métis, upon whose lands we live, work, and play with gratitude. We are all treaty people.

[Museums Assoc of SK @saskmuseums]

MAS recognizes the roles of museums in perpetuating colonial practices in Canada, both directly and indirectly, through collection and display practices, policy, and harmful rhetoric.

[Museums Assoc of SK @saskmuseums]

We commit to explore our roles in nurturing meaningful relationships and building understanding. We dedicate our efforts to working together in a spirit of collaboration and reconciliation.

[Museums Assoc of SK @saskmuseums]

This is a time for all Canadians, Indigenous, non-Indigenous, settlers, and newcomers, to reflect upon and learn the history, sacrifices, cultures, contributions, and strength of First Nations, Inuit, and Métis people.

[Museums Assoc of SK @saskmuseums]

June is National Indigenous History Month in Canada, and June 21, the summer solstice, is National Indigenous Peoples Day.

MAS is dedicated to providing a safer space for everyone. Museums should be safe spaces for everyone to engage in learning about our past, present, and future.
