Join the Friends of the Royal Saskatchewan Museum for an evening of music and reflection featuring Canadian Indigenous musician, author and visual artist Tom Wilson. Wilson’s memoir, Beautiful Scars has become a national bestseller exposing incredible truths about Wilson’s biological family and Indigenous heritage. Beautiful Scars delves into the singer-songwriter’s lifetime quest to find himself and ultimately uncover his true identity as a Mohawk man. Appointed as a Companion of the Order of Canada in June 2023, Wilson was recognized for his multifaceted contributions to the arts in Canada, notably as an iconic musician, as well as for his advocacy of Indigenous communities in Canada. Through his melodies, paintings, and words, Wilson invokes ancestral wisdom while addressing pressing issues of our time. His artistry serves as a bridge between past and present, inviting reflection and dialogue on the complexities of Indigenous identity and resilience.

Stop by for a casual evening and a lively "Ask Me Anything" conversation, with our favourite bird expert Curator Ryan Fisher. He'll be sharing his knowledge of birds, birdwatching tips you can use, and tales from the field. Let's learn about birds in Saskatchewan together.
