Running November 26-29 2020, ASKIY is a new opportunity for export-ready Indigenous artists in Western Canada (MB, SK, AB, BC, NWT, YT) to spend four days focusing on music business and career development.

Participants will have the chance to build relationships with international industry partners from Germany, the US, Australia, Mexico, and Aotearoa (New Zealand), working one-on-one with professional industry and artist mentors, and connect with other Indigenous artists/industry professionals from Canada.

ASKIY means “world” in the Plains Cree language and has been shared by Jerry Roasting Maskwacis.

As we embark on the inaugural year for ASKIY, we know that this residency is not business-as-usual. The residency will be held in-person in Winnipeg, MB and Vancouver, BC however, the in-person part of the event may shift to online as health guidelines change. The safety of all involved is our priority and all guidelines from local health authorities will be communicated and strictly followed.

ASKIY is run through the Indigenous Music West program at @manitobamusic in partnership with @creativebcs.

Join @breakoutwest Friday, Oct 9 at 10am MT to listen in and share your thoughts on "How Artists Are Reshaping the Story of 2020"

When we look back on major points in history, the memories and stories have always been shaped by the songs and culture created. This session will check in with a panel of artists making waves through this precarious moment discuss how it is being shaped and retold through art. What is the new normal? And how is the art of 2020, and the industry that makes it possible, developing a story and a model for a sustainable future?
