Her mixed ancestry and queer identity inform her approach to relational accountability, community responsibility, and the ethical considerations required when working with Indigenous and non-Indigenous communities and the Land herself.Michelle Wilson is a queer, neurodivergent artist and mother living as an uninvited guest in Guelph, Ontario. Her practice approaches artistic collaboration as a form of anti-colonial care work. Rather than centring the myth of the individual artist, she works through enmeshed networks—creating conditions for many hands, stories, and ways of knowing to gather through shared creation. - **Event URL**: https://allevents.in/london/plantain-salve-making-workshop/100001991135139803 - **Event Categories**: workshops, art, exhibitions, crafts, storytelling - **Interested Audience**: - total_interested_count: 0 - **Event Highlights**: - Age Limit: under_16_with_guardian - door_time: 2026-07-04T16:30:00Z - Duration: 3 hours - Location: Forest City Gallery - Languages: English ## Ticket Details - **Ticket Price Range**: min: 0, max: 0, currency: USD ## Event venue details - **city**: London - **state**: ON - **country**: Canada - **location**: Forest City Gallery - **lat**: 42.9980483 - **long**: -81.2169533 - **full address**: Forest City Gallery, 1025 Elias Street, London, Canada ## Event gallery - **Alt text**: Plantain Salve-Making Workshop - **Image URL**: https://cdn-az.allevents.in/events1/banners/02d0827e6aa860a596dbf7e736345cd89479a1739f8fab3c0a85f30941400ee2-rimg-w1200-h600-dcffffff-gmir.jpg?v=1781071952 ## FAQs - **Q**: When and where is Plantain Salve-Making Workshop being held? - **A:** Plantain Salve-Making Workshop takes place on Sat, 04 Jul, 2026 at 01:00 pm to Sat, 04 Jul, 2026 at 04:00 pm at Forest City Gallery, 1025 Elias Street, London, Canada. - **Q**: Who is organizing Plantain Salve-Making Workshop? - **A:** Plantain Salve-Making Workshop is organized by Forest City Gallery. - **Q**: Who is this event for?
