Join us in celebrating a historic moment — the official launch of the Powley Institute — with an electrifying night of Métis music, culture, and community!

Arrive early to explore the new space, then, get ready to tap your toes and dance the night away as some of the finest Métis fiddlers and musicians from across the Nation light up the stage with heart-pounding reels, jigs, and soul-stirring melodies.

It's more than a concert — it's a celebration of identity, history, and future.
You won’t want to miss this once-in-a-generation moment.
