This day honours the children who never returned home and survivors of residential schools, as well as their families and communities. It`s important to listen to Indigenous voices and learn about how the impacts still affect Indigenous communities today. #NDTC #everychildmatters

Join us in welcoming Cyd Sparrow, our fall artist in residence, to Cape Breton Highlands National Park 🍂

Cyd Sparrow (@cydsparrow) is a ceramic artist based in Halifax. They have a Fine Art Diploma (2016) from Red Deer Polytechnic and a BFA majoring in Fine Art and Art History from NSCAD University (2020). Their work is focused on shape, silhouette and colour inspired by natural debris found on the visual surfaces of urban and rural landscapes.

Their work offers alternate and tangible ways to connect, feel, form, cope, connect and question outside of idealized societal expectations. When away from their art practice they can be found drinking coffee, playing cards, dancing, and listening to music, often separately and occasionally all at once.

Come meet Cyd this Thursday, learn about their craft and the exciting projects they`ll be working on during their residency in Ingonish.
