An Indigenous performing artist is the curator of a new place for Indigenous voices to tell their stories
Indigenous artists in this province now have a new organization to support and represent them. Indigenous Performing Arts NL, or IPANL, launched its inaugural season this spring.

Helena spoke with CBC's Amanda Gear earlier this week about the organization and National Indigenous Peoples Day.
