Giselle Aiabens, Indigenous enrolment advisor, displays a beaded pin created in a workshop she led Tuesday for staff in the Welcome Centre. Participants will wear their beadworks in the shape of a red dress in the period leading up to Red Dress Day. “It’s a learning opportunity for these members of our community, and a teaching opportunity for them to spread awareness of its significance,” Aiabens says.
A prize package of posters by artist Robert Small and a copy of the Inspirational Women Trivia Game will go to Giselle Aiabens, the winner of a quiz contest celebrating International Women’s Day.
