Enjoy the day of sharing beliefs, cultural practices, language and history. Hopefully the day will inspire local artists to develop an Iconic Image of Mi'kmaq culture and friendship. The winning submission will receive $400 and the image will be used for t-shirts and promotion of our Barra Strait Mi'kmaq Friendship Event - Aug 30 at Grand Narrows. for more details about the Logo contest see grandnarrowswaterfront.com/page19.html
