Birch Bark Biting the focus of unique cultural display

The work of Pat Bruderer, known as Half Moon Woman, will host an art exhibit that opens on July 30 at Wanuskewin Galleries. The wearable art collection will be highlighted by Half Moon Woman’s amazing birch bark biting designs. The wearable pieces will be housed on mannequins that will display the original birch bark work with a unique technological twist. Laser etching will allow the original pieces to be transferred to traditional materials such as hide, fur, bone and metals creating head to toe looks.

WATCH: Grasslands Sheep Exhibition makes a return

The Grasslands Sheep Exhibition made a return to Humboldt Uniplex for the first time since 2019. The pandemic put a halt to the province wide show which, this year, saw entrants from neighbouring Alberta and Manitoba attend for show, trials and competition.

The Sheep Breeders Association promotes the purebred and commercial aspects of the industry. The organization hosts two shows a year, one at Agribition and the summer show which has been held in Humboldt since 2017. 

Here's a quick recap of this year's Grasslands Sheep Exhibition and Show.
