SUMMARY:The Witness Blanket
DESCRIPTION:Seemingly disconnected remnants of clothing\, crumbling buildings\, and fragmented cultures are woven together into a blanket\, designed to shine light on the Indian Residential School system that connects them\, and stand as a monument to the resiliency and strength of those who survived them.  \nThe Nelson Museum\, Archives & Gallery (NMAG) is honoured to exhibit a replicated portion of The Witness Blanket in the summer of 2024\, on tour from the Canadian Museum of Human Rights in Winnipeg\, Manitoba. Inspired by a woven blanket\, Witness Blanket is a large-scale work of art created by master carver Carey Newman\, containing hundreds of items reclaimed from residential schools\, churches\, government buildings\, and traditional and cultural structures from across Canada.   \nThe Witness Blanket is on display from August 10 to September 20\, 2024.

SUMMARY:SPACE QUEEN\, WE ARE NOT A CULT\, JAYNE KARMA LAMO
DESCRIPTION:Space Queen is a heavy rock power trio comprised of Jenna Earle (guitar/vocals)\, Seah Maister (bass/keys/vocals) and Karli MacIntosh (drums/vocals) Space Queen takes the trio’s signature haunting vocal harmonies and sends them soaring over a cosmic canvas of neo-psychedelic rock. Driving beats from MacIntosh provide an anchor for Earle’s heavy distortion and 70s-style riffs\, while Maister keeps everything grounded on fuzzed-out\, gnarly bass. \nWe Are Not A Cult are a punk rock band from Penticton\, Canada. Formed in 2022 by a group of bored professionals that spent years making music and found a way to combine into something better than the sum of its parts. Their unique brand of punk rock hits on skate punk\, hardcore\, rock\, and any other genre they can blend in to keep themselves entertained. \nJayne Karma Lamo is a neurodivergent multi-instrumentalist\, performer\, recording artist and producer from Salmo\, BC. Jayne creates dreamy\, post-grunge alt-rock\, drawing from multiple self produced albums worth of original material. Her signature sound has been influenced by the likes of PJ Harvey\, Radiohead\, the Dandy Warhols\, among many others.
