'Through COVID it has been extremely hard with not being able to gather, not being able to share our knowledge, our passion,' says Julie Pellissier-Lush, a Mi'kmaw writer, poet and member of Lennox Island First Nation.(Tony Davis/CBC)
A Mi'kmaw writer, poet and member of Lennox Island First Nation was able to lead a public gathering in downtown Charlottetown on Saturday for the first time since 2019 due to the pandemic.
Julie Pellissier-Lush led a gathering called a Mawi'omi. It features Indigenous drumming, dancing and storytelling.
Pellissier-Lush says Mi'kmaq on P.E.I. think of wellness in four components: mind, body, spirit and inner self.
