Artist Shelley Niro will discuss her work and her exhibition Boundless, currently on display at Art Windsor-Essex, over a beading circle and turkey lunch on Friday, Oct. 7.

Presented by the Aboriginal Education Centre - Turtle Island and Windsor Law in partnership with Art Windsor-Essex, the event is open to all and starts at noon in room 115, Dillon Hall.

It will open with a drop-in beading circle — participants may bring their own projects or can receive a Red Dress kit in advance by emailing katpasq@uwindsor.ca. After lunch, Niro will speak and take questions.
