White Buffalo Calf Woman Gala
February 28, 2026
Muskoka Parry Sound Sexual Assault Services (MPSSAS) in collaboration with Toronto Rape Crisis Centre and TAIBU is hosting a powerful culturally vibrant Gala & Awareness Event at the Royal Ontario Museum in Tkaronto on Saturday, February 28, 2026.
​
This gathering is more than a celebration – it is a space for truth-telling, collective witnessing, and community healing in response to gender-based and colonial violence. It is also a visible act of solidarity with Indigenous and Afro-Indigenous survivors of sexual violence and a chance to honour their voices, leadership, and stories.
Link to ticket sales will be live HERE soon!

THE EVENING WILL FEATURE:
• A ribbon skirt fashion showcase inspired by the teachings of White Buffalo Calf Woman and Deer Woman, featuring eleven original skirts created through an Indigenous-led storytelling and design contest.
• Drumming and dancing that honour Indigenous traditions and community spirit.
• Indigenous and Afro-Indigenous fashion presentations showcasing culture, artistry, and resurgence.
• Reflections and teachings from youth leaders, knowledge keepers, and survivors.
• Indigenous-inspired hors d’oeuvres and non-alcoholic punch, served in keeping with our commitment to safety, cultural respect, and inclusion.
