After six weeks on public display at Flin Flon City Hall, the Witness Blanket replica exhibit has been taken down. A closing ceremony was held to pay tribute to the exhibit and the lessons it teaches, paying tribute to culture and tradition that survived past - and in spite of - residential schools.
Flin Flon’s exhibition of a replica of the famed Witness Blanket is underway. The piece is now open for the public to see at City Hall until late next month.
A series of northern Manitoba volunteers and community figures, including people from Flin Flon and Snow Lake, have been honoured with Queen’s Platinum Jubilee Medals.
