Tipi Tours Legacy Project

The Tipi Tours Legacy Project in Brandon is a meaningful Indigenous tourism and reconciliation initiative that grew from the community’s involvement in the nationally recognized Walking With Our Sisters commemorative art installation. The project features a series of permanent tipis located throughout Brandon at schools, public spaces, and community organizations, each sharing teachings, artwork, and stories connected to Indigenous culture, history, and healing. Created as places for reflection, education, and gathering, the tipis honour Missing and Murdered Indigenous Women, Girls, and Two-Spirit people while encouraging ongoing conversations about truth and reconciliation. Visitors exploring the tour gain a deeper understanding of Indigenous traditions, symbolism, and the importance of preserving cultural knowledge for future generations.
