It is more important than ever to keep the dialogue alive and thriving in our community\,” says Ry Moran. “Music and the arts are so important in helping continue this journey.” \n\n\n\n\n“Reconciliation lives in action. By uplifting Indigenous youth\,” says Nikky Ermineskin\, “we are not only empowering the present — we are sustaining the culture\, language\, art and music that have carried us through generations. This is how we honour Truth and Reconciliation in a living\, breathing way.”\n\n\n\n\n\n\nAbout the event\nThe evening will feature performances\, conversation\, and collaborative artmaking. Hip hop artist and filmmaker Nikky Ermineskin (Nikky E) will co-host alongside Ry Moran\, guest faculty in Music and Reconciliation at the Victoria Conservatory of Music and one of Canada’s leading voices in Truth and Reconciliation.  \n\nMusic will include performances by flutist Tyler Evans-Knott\, singer-songwriter Colleen Eccleston\, and Good Medicine\, a group of Indigenous youth sharing their culture through drumming\, dancing\, and song.  \n\nVisual artists Francis Dick and Jesse Campbell will contribute their work\, including the guitar that inspired their new mural at the Conservatory entrance at 900 Johnson Street\, which will be played by Cedar Lopatecki during the event.  \n\n\nBios:\n\nBradley Dick (Yuxwelupton Qwal’ qaxala)\nYuxwelupton Qwal’ qaxala  (Bradley Dick)  is of Lkwungen\, Mamalilikulla and Ditidaht ancestry.

These works have been sold privately throughout Vancouver Island and Bradley is sure there will be more works to come.  \n\nRy Moran  \nSince 2023\, Ry Moran has assisted the Conservatory through a guest faculty appointment in Music and Reconciliation. He aims to celebrate the role of music in advancing Truth and Reconciliation\, while also helping explore the responsibilities carried by music centers like the Victoria Conservatory in its mission of learning\, performance\, and wellness.

Her work is deeply rooted in inspiring Indigenous youth to follow their dreams\, share their stories with the world\, and stay grounded in Indigenous culture\, language\, and ceremony.  \n\nTyler Evans-Knott \nOriginally from Curve Lake First Nation in Ontario\, Anishinaabe flutist Tyler Evans-Knott is currently pursuing a Diploma in Flute Performance through Camosun College and the Victoria Conservatory of Music\, studying with Emily Nagelbach and also participating in the Gary Karr Young Artists Performance Academy.

At the 2024 Spark to Flame Student Showcase\, Tyler performed the second movement of Michael Daugherty’s Trail of Tears Concerto\, entitled “incantation\,” which reflects upon the passing of loved ones who’ve travelled to the Spirit World. \n\nColleen Eccleston\nAfter 14 years with The Ecclestons and many adventures on the road\, Colleen stepped out to share her contagious love of life as she turned the human condition into a song. Having played with both Karel Roessingh (piano) and Scott White (bass) separately years before she was honoured to add their virtuosity to her eclectic mix of material.

She is a descendant of the supernatural Wolf\, Kawadelekala\, who became the first of the Kingcome people.  \n\nThe image of this mythical being is prominent in much of Francis Dick’s native art\, acknowledging her contemporary ties to her cultural heritage. Francis holds this very near to the centre of her spirit\, as she relies on this hereditary knowledge for her strength. “Before anything else\, my work is about honouring my life process\, my journey\, through my fires\, from places of pain and darkness to places that I might stand in my truth; my work is not a career\, it’s a way of life.”  \n\nFrancis began her career as a social worker after receiving her degree from the University of Victoria\, but quickly realized that her true calling in life was to honour her natural artistic talents. \n\nFrancis Dick’s first aboriginal painting\, Kawadelekala\, was created\, then published\, as a way to honour her grandmother’s life and spirit after her death in December of 1985. Four months later\, her youngest brother\, Jesse\, took his own life. She created her second aboriginal painting as a way to acknowledge her love and honour for her brother. The pain of losing Jesse took her to a doorway where her journey of self discovery began through her northwest coast art.  \n\nFrancis Dick is an integral member of the native art community\, and is frequently requested to speak for various community organizations\, women’s groups and university classes. She has been invited to speak as a guest lecturer as far away as Europe and has had native art exhibitions all around the globe\, including China and the Middle East. Francis’ native art has been exhibited in various art galleries and museums\, including a permanent exhibit at the Ethnological Museum in Berlin. Her aboriginal paintings\, as well as articles and interviews\, have been published in books\, calendars and magazines all over North America\, Asia and Europe.  \n\nAlthough Francis Dick’s primary forms of artistic expression have been her aboriginal paintings\, prints and singing\, she also works with gold and silver\, and is an accomplished writer and performer of native ceremonies.  \n\nJesse Campbell\nJesse Campbell is a Michif mural artist\, public arts consultant\, and director of Tah’lum (Tah-lum) Indigenous Artists collective. On his mother’s side he is Michif (mih-chiff) from St. Boniface as well as Salteaux (su-toh) from Waterhen Lake Manitoba. \n \nOn his Fathers side he his mixed English\, german\, and French ancestry. Jesse has been painting murals professionally since 2010 and has worked on some of the largest murals on the west coast including the Naat’sa’maat unity wall project on the Ogden Point Breakwater as well as the Rock Bay mural here in Victoria. \nJesse also works as a mentor to emerging Indigenous artists and as the Director of Tah’lum Indigenous artists collective. \n\nCedar Lopatecki\nCedar Lopatecki is an experimental guitarist who draws on a wide range of influences\, from blues to classical and ambient music. With endless possibilities\, Cedar seeks to explore meaning and thought through the medium of sound. Having grown up on the rural west coast\, nature plays a massive role in their life as well as their inspiration\, shaping how she approaches her creativity.  \n \nSailing the Salish Sea was released by Adam Dobres on his 2016 album Kin. It is a song of celebration for the land and waters we live on\, marvelling at their majesty\, playfulness\, and beauty. To quote the author himself\, “When I play this piece I hope that the listener joins me in imagining and appreciating this magical part of the world.” \n\nVenue Accessibility\n\nThe 900 Johnson Street entrance is wheelchair accessible at street level. There’s a drop-off zone out front\, elevator access inside\, and several accessible washrooms\, including a gender-neutral washroom.  \n\nWe honour Canoo and Access 2 Passes.
