MY STORY Bill Quinn
Monday November 1, 1pm-3pm
Aboriginal Front Door, 384 Main
Longtime DTES resident, First Nation elder and artist, Bill Quinn will share his story with us. His story is about the past, the present and the future of his people and his own journey. He tells of the history—of food, medicine, shelter, and how for a number of years now there’s been a downfall and the aftermath is now stuffed into city sidewalks. Ten years ago Bill took an original approach to collage art and he puts his words into pictures. His work layers tragedy and humour into an exploration of his story from buffalo meat to baloney. Bill now talks about a better destiny when we become aware that we all share this galaxy. Come and share in Bill’s story. Everyone welcome. Free
