Aline LaFlamme of Good Medicine Consulting is a Metis grandmother, pipe carrier, Sundancer, drum maker, singer, traditional healer, therapist and workshop facilitator. She is the founder and past Executive Director of the Aboriginal Front Door Society, located in Vancouver’s Downtown East Side, and a founding member of the Daughters of the Drum.
She will guide us through the sacred medicine and traditional ways of drum making and ceremony. This three hour workshop will consist of working with a 14” hoop and elk hide, learning the techniques of sewing and binding as well as creating your drum stick. We will close the evening with a ceremony and drum awakening and ask you to bring a small dish of food that is special to you as an offering to share with the group.
