When young people see their work valued, it tells them their voices matter.
NSMTC partnered with Made with Local to help give young Mi’kmaq artists an opportunity to share their creativity through the Strawberry Indigenous Youth Art Contest. This year’s winning artwork was created by Reese Simon from Natoaganeg School. Reese’s bright design tells a story of atuomko’mink (strawberry) and na’gu’set (sun), and is now featured on Made with Local’s seasonal Strawberry Sunshine Real Food Bar. 🍓🌞

➡️ Interested in trying the Strawberry Sunshine bar? If you're in Natoaganeg, they are currently available for purchase at Joes Kwik Way.
This is so cool! Congratulations Reese!
