For thousands of years there have been people living right here where we are now telling stories with children, performing, gathering, creating community.  We would like to acknowledge and thank the indigenous people in our midst, past and present, who have been the caretakers of this sacred land Tkaronto – the gathering place of many nations including the Wendat, the Haudenosaunee, the Anishinaabe, and the Mississaugas of the Credit First Nation.
