Painswick Branch

Learn about the uniqueness of Inuit people and their distinct culture through story, language and craft.

Drop-in and meet Muckpaloo Ipeelie, Inuit cultural teacher and owner and operator of The Urban Inuit Identity Project, as we gather and learn together. Discover how to speak 3 Inuit animal words in Inuktitut, with activities designed to foster sharing amongst all the participants. Listen as Muckpaloo reads A Promise Is a Promise written by Canadian Children's author Robert Munsch with Nunavut author Michael Kusugak. Explore this adventure story about a young girl who encounters the Qallupilluit, an imaginary Inuit character. 

Create your own stamped journal, to sketch your own imaginary character and capture a few notes.  


Drop-in program, all ages welcome. Please follow our Stay Safe Guidelines. 


This event is hosted by the Barrie Public Library and supported by the City of Barrie as part of National Indigenous History Month and National Indigenous Peoples Day.
