A list of projects and sites that we have looked to for guidance and inspiration as we develop Mootookakio’ssin.

Glenbow Museum – Niitsitapiisini
“We call ourselves Niitsitapi, although we are known as the Blackfoot. This is our way of life. It is about how we lived with our families, the environment, and our neighbours. It is also about how these relationships are still important to us.”

Blackfoot Crossing Historical Park is a world renowned cultural, educational and entertainment Centre built for the promotion and preservation of the Siksika Nation Peoples’, Language, Culture and Traditions.”
