Celestial Bear - The First Nations' Night Sky @ Sherwood In-Person
“That is how I heard the story, so I thought that is how you would hear it as well…”
A fascinating show that blends local culture, history, and modern-day astronomy that shares the Six Nation’s sky lore and language through traditional indigenous night-sky stories. With narration and visuals by a live presentation and pre-recorded excerpts, learn about the story of the bear and the brothers and how it is retold every year with the rotating patterns in the night sky.
See the same stars with a completely different understanding and appreciation!
This show was collaboratively produced by members of the Six Nations, McMaster’s Indigenous Studies Program, and the McCallion Planetarium.
Presented in partnership with McMaster's McCallion Planetarium.
