The sākihiwē festival's workshops will continue into August with more free performances and fun activities for families and fans of live music. The series will stream on the festival's YouTube channel and Facebook page every Wednesday, beginning on August 5.
Sandra Sutter, William Prince, Samantha Crain, PIQSIQ, and Fawn Wood among the artists set to perform and lead workshops for the sākihiwē festival's outreach programming in July.
