ALIGN’s Winter Count Project: Acimowina – Teaching Stories
Six months before the AGM, we gathered in ceremony led by Elder Harley Crowshoe at Trellis Society, within Treaty 7 territory—the traditional lands of the Blackfoot Confederacy. This wasn’t just a meeting; it was a beginning. Elder Harley guided us in grounding our process in cultural protocol and spiritual intention. From that moment, the Winter Count became more than a project—it became a journey.
