Land Acknowledgement
Our Elders have taught us the importance of acknowledging the land that we gather on. The land sustains us, guides us, and brings inspiration. To members of the Calgary Orff Chapter, the land represents the spaces where we can gather together to make music and land that gives us the materials to create instruments. We are fortunate to live and play in an area that gives us beautiful and inspiring landscapes of strong mountains, rushing rivers, and bird songs.
The Calgary Orff Chapter acknowledges that Moh’kinsstis (Calgary) is the traditional territory of the Blackfoot Nations in the Treaty 7 Region of Southern Alberta, this includes the Siksika, the Piikani, the Kainai. We would also like to acknowledge the Stoney Nakoda and Tsuut’ina, as well as the Métis Nation of Alberta (Region 3). All people who live and work in the Treaty 7 region are treaty people
