Tonight was another Craft & Chat night, and it was a beautiful reminder that sometimes the best part of creating is simply having a place to sit together, work with our hands, and share time in community.

Everyone worked on something a little different. Some community members finished up their birchbark earrings, while others continued working on two-row wampum keychains, big-stitch hoops, peyote-stitch hair sticks, and other projects they brought from home.

Craft & Chat is about more than completing a project. It is about creating space to learn from one another, share knowledge, talk, laugh, and spend time together while our hands stay busy. Every project around the table carries a little piece of the person creating it, and every conversation becomes part of the experience.

We are grateful for the creativity, knowledge, and stories that continue to fill our programming space. These evenings remind us that culture can be found not only in what we make, but in the relationships we build while making it.

Miigwech and Nya:węh to everyone who joined us tonight and helped make another evening of Craft & Chat so special.

Aaniin, She:kon Brantford Native Housing Community,

We’re excited to announce that Brantford Native Housing is looking for a local Indigenous artist to help bring our 5th Annual Truth and Reconciliation Event to life through art.

This year, we are looking for an original design to be featured on our event T-shirts and promotional swag. We want to create something that reflects the spirit of the event and the many stories, identities, teachings, and experiences that make up our Indigenous community.

We welcome artwork inspired by Truth and Reconciliation, Indigenous identity and culture, resilience, strength, community, connection, and our ongoing journey forward.

The selected artist will receive a cash honourarium and artist exposure, with their artwork being shared throughout our community as part of this year’s event.

Submissions will be accepted until August 24, 2026, after which we will review the submissions and announce the selected artist.

If you’re an Indigenous artist in our community, we’d love to see what you create. And if you know an artist who might be interested, please share this post with them!

For questions, submissions, or more information, you can DM us or email [email protected].

Miigwech • Nya:węh to all of the artists who continue to share their gifts, stories, and creativity with our community.

Aaniin, She:kon Brantford Native Housing Community,

We’ve been seeing some amazing growth in our community programming registrations, and we want to start by saying Miigwech and Nya:węh for your continued support!

As more community members are joining us for programs, we’ve made a few updates to our registration process. These changes are intended to help make registration as fair and accessible as possible, while also making sure program spots aren’t held by community members who are unable to attend.

Please take a moment to read through the updates in the slides, including who can register on behalf of someone else and our new confirmation deadline.

Our community is growing, and we’re so grateful to see so many people coming together to learn, create, share, and connect.

If you have any questions about these changes or the registration process, please reach out to [email protected].

Miigwech and Nya:węh for your understanding, patience, and continued support of our community programming.

West Street Development Progress
Construction is continuing to move forward at our West Street development, and we’re excited to share a few photos of the progress taking place on site!

The project is taking shape as Paulsan and crews continue working through the structural stages of construction. The concrete foundation and walls are now clearly in place, with framing and floor systems progressing above. These important stages are helping bring the vision for this development to life, one step at a time.

Seeing the structure begin to rise is an exciting milestone. What was once an empty site is becoming a new space that will provide much needed housing and contribute to the growth and wellbeing of our community.

We’re grateful to the dedicated contractors, tradespeople, project partners, and everyone working behind the scenes to keep this important project moving forward.

We look forward to sharing more updates as construction continues and we watch the West Street development take shape. There’s still lots of work ahead, but we’re excited to see the progress and the possibilities ahead!

We can't wait to fill these homes!

Something is stirring…

For a little while, the drum has been quiet.

But not for much longer.

Something special is returning this September… something that brings people together, carries our voices, and keeps the heartbeat of our community strong.

We’re not ready to tell you everything just yet… but we can say this:

The drum will sound again, and there is a place for you.

Stay tuned. More details are coming soon.

BNH Charity Golf Tournament — Part 4: Making an Impact

As we wrap up our golf tournament highlights, we want to come back to the reason we gathered together in the first place, our community.

The support raised through this tournament will help with the expansion of Ojistoh House, supporting our vision of creating safe, welcoming, culturally grounded spaces for Indigenous women, children, and youth.

The core of our work is creating spaces where people can feel safe, supported, connected, and a strong sense of belonging, spaces that can help foster healing, stability, and wellbeing.

Every golfer who joined us, every sponsor who supported us, every donor that donated, those who helped behind the scenes, and every person who contributed in some way played a part in making this possible.

So, from all of us at BNH, we thank you.

Thank you for the beautiful day, the laughter, the friendship, the generosity, and most importantly, for helping us invest in the future of our community.

What a day. What a community. What an impact.
