The Art Gallery of Bancroft is situated on the traditional territory of the Anishinaabeg Algonquins, which is known to be unceded. Indigenous people have been stewards of this land since time immemorial; as such we honour and respect their connection to the land, its plants, animals and stories. Our recognition of the contributions and historic importance of Indigenous peoples is sincerely aligned to our collective commitment to make the promise and the challenge of truth and reconciliation real in our community.

The Bancroft Village Playhouse is situated on unceded Algonquin Territory. Tweed & Company Theatre, who operate this building, want to recognize that the Anishinaabeg have been stewards of this land since time immemorial.

Through this territorial acknowledgement, we not only respect those who have cared for this land past and present but also strive to centre Indigenous voices in our work, and our practices, moving forward. We recognize the cultural genocide, erasure and anti-Indigenous racism carried out by colonial forces still present today. We will continue to educate ourselves and in our own growth as a company are committed to fostering a deeper understanding of these oppressive forces and will continue to hold space for First Nations, Metis and Inuit Peoples.
