Debuted in November 2015 at the Canadian Museum of Human Rights in Winnipeg, Forgotten is a modular exhibition that uses art, artefacts, poetry, images and text to explore the experiences of Métis children in the residential schools, experiences that have been, up until now, largely lost and forgotten.

This exhibition explores Métis identity, cultural reclamation and healing after their unique experience with an education system that sometimes saw them as ‘too white’, or ‘too Indian’, often moved them to different schools away from their communities to keep school numbers and therefore payments to schools up. The ‘in between’ people have their own stories to tell about the Residential School experience.
