May 12, 2026 | 10:37 AM

The changing of the seasons has established a new tradition in Saskatchewan. For the past five years, the SGI Solstice Speaker Series, held at the Royal Saskatchewan Museum in Regina, has invited Indigenous and non-Indigenous leaders, storytellers, and artists to share insights and stories on important contemporary issues, culture, and history.

Speakers have included artists like Tom Wilson and Raven Reid, national journalists like Lisa LaFlamme, Nelson Bird, and Creeson Agecoutay, and both past and present Eagle Feather News editors John Lagimodiere and Kerry Benjoe.

“The Solstice Speaker Series continues to be a powerful space of meaningful conversation, learning, and connection,” said Penny McCune, President and CEO of SGI.

“We’re proud to support initiatives like this that move beyond words and create real opportunities for understanding and reconciliation,” said McCune.
