Marking a new chapter for Indigenous Arts and Leadership at Banff Centre, they are thrilled to open the Centre’s first building dedicated to Indigenous culture—Îethka Mâkochî Ahogi Chi Pa Bi Ti: Îethka Territory House of Respect. Situated on the side of Sacred Buffalo Guardian Mountain, the new centre will have its home in one of the original Banff Centre chalets (formerly known as Farrally Hall) at the top of Ken Madsen path. It will welcome Indigenous participants, faculty, Elders and other guests from around the world. The renovated building has space for ceremonies, feasts and potlucks, Elder and staff offices, and will feature newly acquired artworks representing Indigenous artists from across Canada.
