Notes
- We need to be able to market artists to our audiences, so promotional photos and performance videos are just as important to us as the music.
- We take music to Indigenous and newcomer families, so performers may be required to provide a child abuse registry check for all members and support staff.
- We rely on project grants, which often come closer to our festival and concert dates, so performance offers might not be sent out until March for local artists.
- We will keep submissions on file for consideration in 2025.
Please email Alan Greyeyes (agreyeyes@gmail.com) if you have any questions.
Aboriginal Music Manitoba (AMM) acknowledges the Government of Canada, the Canada Council for the Arts, the Manitoba Arts Council, and the Winnipeg Arts Council for their financial support of the sākihiwē festival and the sākihiwē summer outreach concert series.
