Land Acknowledgement

SPARC would like to acknowledge the traditional Indigenous land on which we are so fortunate to create and partake in the arts. Our organization is situated in Ontario, which is covered by 46 treaties and other agreements, such as land purchases by the Crown signed between 1781 and 1930, as well as many unceded and disputed territories. What we now call Ontario is home to many Indigenous nations, including the Métis and Inuit people, who have been the traditional caretakers of this land for many generations and who continue to live, work and thrive here today.
