"Our Beginnings" was originally created by Thompson as a logo for the 1997 North American Indigenous Games. The image has been generously donated by the artist to a new program to be used as its visual identity. The program, the first of its kind in Canada, is committed to teaching and research that respects both western and indigenous traditions and forms of knowledge. Its first students began classes in September 1999. 1, record 1, English, - Our%20Beginnings
