About the artist
Coast Salish artist from the Quw’utsun Tribes. Working in murals, jewelry, and graphic design, she carries forward stories of strength, culture, and belonging. Guided by the teaching Nuts’a’maat Shqwalsun, one heart, one mind, her art brings people together in the spirit of remembrance, healing, and hope for future generations.

The design
This design shows a Thunderbird perched above, with a child reaching upward. In Coast Salish teachings, the Thunderbird is a powerful being of protection and transformation. Here, it symbolizes the strength of our Nations and the spirit watching over the next generation. The child reaching up represents hope, resilience, and the voices of Survivors who remind us that every child deserves safety, love, and belonging. It speaks to the protection of children, the survival of culture, and the responsibility we carry to uplift future generations while remembering those who were taken
