City Invites The Public To Attend A Special Event Marking The National Day For Truth and Reconciliation

In honour of National Day for Truth and Reconciliation, the public is invited to attend the official unveiling of a large-scale mural created by local Inuvialuit artist Cassandra McLaughlin, which has been permanently installed outside the City Market, on Friday, September 30. The ceremony will take place at the Germain Street entrance of the Saint John City Market starting at 12:00 p.m.

Following the ceremony, the public is encouraged to visit the Every Child Matters shadow box created by UNB Saint John’s Indigenous Advisor and students, and view short films and videos to learn about Truth and Reconciliation and its history.

The City Market will be open from 12:00 p.m. – 5:00 p.m. and market vendors will be collecting donations for the Indian Residential School Survivors Society.
