Angela Aula was born in Iqaluit and raised in Hall Beach Nunavut, but has lived in Toronto since she was 8 years old. Angela paints murals around the city. To continue making Inuit art during the pandemic, Angela started doing make-up on TikTok and quickly gained almost 40k followers. Angela loves her Inuit culture and art and tries to keep it alive through her artwork and videos.
Please join us in learning more of Inuit culture and creating your own art piece, an Inukqsuk (stone person) painting on canvas.
Must register for the workshop. Limited seats.
This event is part of Mzawe Kiing Anishinaabek Giizis | National Indigenous Peoples Month.
