Thunder Bay-based Métis artist Michel Dumont is "doing" our 28th annual Christmas Spice tree and this new work will form the centrepiece of his exhibition Za zay gaa mitig, Ojibway for "decorated tree". 
 
Dumont's exhibition will morph into a grouping of allies and familiars come the opening of Christmas Spice on November 29. Pictured here are his Forget-Me-Not mosaic ornaments. The motif is inspired by Métis and Ojibway florals that make up the flora of the Robinson Treaty area.
