The Aboriginal Student Centre (ASC) at the University of Regina has planned and coordinated National Aboriginal Day celebrations since 2008, normally to be held on the Dr. Lloyd Barber Academic Green at the centre of the University campus.
The celebration has included a variety of activites and performances such as: Traditional Pow-Wow Dancers & Drummers; Metis Jiggers; Square Dancers; Hip-Hop Break Dancers; Face & Saulteaux Syllabic Rock Painting; Tipi Raising Demonstration; Potato Dance Competition; and much more!
The ASC invites: all faculty, staff and students at the U of Regina; the general community; and honoured guests to participate in the annual celebration.
In addition to all the activities, lunch tickets are available that typically include: bannock burger; salad; canned drink; ice-cream treat; and slice of celebration cake.
The yearly event has grown in capacity each time and is projected to grow into the future with more interactive and engaging activities.
