Indigenous Experiences in Saskatoon

For thousands of years, Saskatoon has been a gathering place. Before the bridges and buildings of our contemporary cityscape, this land was a traditional travelling route and meeting ground for the Cree, Saulteaux, Blackfoot, Métis, Dene, and Nakota Sioux peoples.

These peoples have struggled against the tide of colonization for generations, working tirelessly to preserve and protect their culture, language, and traditions. 

Saskatoon is located on Treaty 6 Territory. As we work to create a future in which truth is understood and reconciliation is possible, we invite you to experience the art, cuisine, history, and culture of the first peoples of this land.
