The Fort Frances Museum and Cultural Centre hosted a Métis dot art session on September 27, giving participants a hands-on way to explore cultural art.

The session focused on traditional dot art techniques, inspired by beadwork, and allowed participants to create designs on keychains, clothing, and jewelry. More than a dozen people attended, learning the techniques and experimenting with their own creations.

The event reflects the museum’s ongoing efforts to showcase history, art, and culture, including recent exhibits on Métis heritage, Treaty No. 3, and residential schools. The session highlighted how cultural traditions continue to be shared and experienced in the community.
