Spark works with Indigenous Elders and Indigenous community members to weave Indigenous science and ways of knowing into the gallery reinvention project.

Spark is redesigning all spaces inside and outside of the building over the next five years. With a theme of regeneration, the science centre is weaving multiple ways of knowing into this redesign. What makes Spark unique? The land it is on and its connection to community. Members of the Spark Advisory Circle and Indigenous community members have been, and will continue to be, an integral part of the engagement process that informs the science centre transformation.

A welcome sign at the main entrance to Spark greets all visitors in Treaty 7 languages. A permanent welcome and land acknowledgment are an integral part of the redesign plans for the entry experience.

Spark is working with Blackfoot Elders to create Blackfoot language audio related to gallery experiences.

Guided by the Indigenous Advisory Circle, the Telus Spark Science Centre land acknowledgement has multiple parts, connecting to the original caretakers and including a personal reflection.

A new series at Spark, which started with Tessa Wolf Leg and an evening of Indigenous Plant Science!

Spark is consulting with Indigenous Elders about how best to connect the building's main entrance to the stories of the land, creating a space that welcomes everyone into Spark, a “home of knowledge.”

Spark is working with local Elders, Knowledge Keepers and “to be” Knowledge Keepers to create an outdoor gathering space to reconnect with the land, and host small gatherings and storytelling sessions.
