Red Embers Indigenous art exhibit on display FORMERLY ON display at Allen Gardens downtown, the Red Embers art installation is now being exhibited at Ashbridges Bay Park. Red Embers pays tribute to Missing and Murdered Indigenous Women, Girls, and 2SLGBTQQIA community members. The installation features 13 large banners supported by wooden poles to form a pathway which people can walk through, around and under. The banners are made of a number of materials including moose hide. The 20-foot high poles supporting the banners were anchored into the ground last week in anticipation of the official opening of the Red Embers art installation later this month in Ashbridges Bay Park. The installation can be easily seen from the Boardwalk’s western end and is also a short walk from the entrance of the Ashbridges Bay Park parking lot. Red Embers is created by 15 Indigenous female-identifying artists including Annie Beach; Kristen Auger & Adrienne Greyeyes; Sara Biscarra Dilley; Hillary Brighthill; Hannah Claus; Rosalie Favell; Lindsey Lickers; Lido Pimienta; Eladia Smoke and Larissa Roque; Louise Solomon; Rolande Souliere; Catherine Tammaro, and Janelle Wawia. “The 13 banners symbolize the 13 Grandmother Moons within the Lunar System. According to the Indigenous tradition, the Grandmother Moon heals those women who have suffered sexual assault or domestic violence,” said a release about Red Embers by the Ontario College of Art and Design. Beacher Lisa Rochon, an urban designer and author who has juried many Winter Stations’ competitions, collaborated with the Indigenous artists and designers to help create the Red Embers installation and to bring to it to now be displayed in Ashbridges Bay Park.

Expansion of Beaches Disc Golf Course highlights differing opinions on uses of space in public parks By Alan Shackleton

THE LOCATION of a disc golf course in Ashbridges Bay Park has highlighted the question of how pubic lands should be used. The Beaches Disc Golf Course recently expanded its layout in the park to include nine additional holes, most of which are located in an area at the far west end of Woodbine

Beach, past the volleyball courts. A letter sent to Beach Metro News last week from Clyde Robinson, who is a member of Ashbridges Bay Nature Stewards, asked why there had been no public consultation or notice about the disc golf course extension and questioned the area it was built in. “As a local naturalist and hearing from the nature community especially birders, in this

day and age of being all inclusive, we’re all wondering why there was no consultation?” the letter read. He said many in his group question the location for the disc golf course extension as it is in an area that was becoming more naturalized. “A couple of years ago I was thrilled, and I’m assuming other nature or like-minded Continued on Page 4
