IndigenEd is a 100% Indigenous owned, registered, sole proprietorship founded by Veronica Johnny - Cree-Dene woman / artist-entrepreneur, that focuses on lifting female Indigenous voices and stories through music, film, workshops and retreats.We infuse Indigenous teachings and self-help techniques into arts education workshops, music performances, inspirational speeches, and land based retreats, for a diverse community and strive to educate and entertain through all visual storytelling mediums.

We centre Indigenous musicians', artists’, elders’ and knowledge keepers’ voices.

Our mission is to create understanding between Indigenous and non-Indigenous peoples; and to celebrate and inspire through art to create a shared experience for awakening our common humanity.

IndigenEd strives to partner with organizations to offer workshops at no cost to participants.There is a momentum of Indigenous resurgence in the mainstream and an openness to learn. Following the Truth & Reconciliation Commission report, there is a need to educate the general populations and institutional bodies about Indigenous cultures.
IndigenEd will bridge the gap between indigenous and non-Indigenous peoples, is working for intercultural exchange using art as a reconciliation tool; and will contribute to decolonizing worldviews by bringing Indigenous understanding of the land, culture and teachings.
