RUTH BON-NEVILLE / WINNIPEG FREE PRESS ENT - Jingle dress Photo of dress on display at CMHR. A Jingle dress, called Awasisuk, was created by artist Thompson-based Amanda Grieves and is on display in the Museumճ Community Corridor until August of 2023. A dressmaker and community helper, Grieves was inspired to sew the dress by the Every Child Matters movement. In the wake of news about the discovery of unmarked graves at the sites of former residential schools, she wanted to create a work that spoke to the power of healing, and the importance of creating a better world for our children. Details about the dress are below. This Friday evening, Grieves will lead a panel alongside her father, Alan Dennis Grieves, and Winnipeg-based community organizer Michael Redhead Champagne. The event, ҂ehind the Dress: A call to keep fighting for our kids,Ӡwill explore the stories sewn into the dress and the lived experiences that led to its creation. March 23rd, 2023
