International Shaman Drum Ceremony By Grandmother Gayle Crosmaz - Black Bear
Grandmother Gayle has recently joined her family, as a new resident in the Highlands area. As a long time artist she is a welcomed addition to the gallery with her paintings and a sacred ceremonial drum. When not here in the Highlands of Ontario, she travels the world sharing her wisdom gleaned from 70 years of experiences here on earth. Over 300 of her painted sacred drums have found their place in 12 countries across North and South America, Europe and Australia. Her ceremonies are celebrated across the U.S.A., Europe, Iceland, and Greenland. On December 15th Grandmother Gayle will perform a sacred ceremony at the APFTA Gala. She will ring out the old year as we transmute many world challenges, and in transformation we welcome the new energies of peace. She will honour her Eastern European Ancestors by wearing the regalia they guided her to create, which is depicted in a painting in the gallery. As if magically stepping right out of the painting, she will perform with the Siberian Teardrop drum on display at the gallery. Her Siberian drum is offered in the gallery as a fund raising option toward Algonquin cultural initiatives. Two of her paintings in the gallery are offered as fund raisers for the Little Blue Cabins project and for the Turtle Guardians to aid in rescuing the turtles.
Join us and feel the energy of love, the energy of compassion and the energy of unity.

The bioluminescence of fireflies symbolizes the lighting of the trail—a way forward. Wàwàtesì also has cultural importance to the Algonquin People as indicators of the passage of time, renewal, healing and the cycles of life. The Wàwàtesì Cultural Discovery Project will include an ongoing series of physical & virtual experiences introducing Algonquin art, culture, language & heritage to those who live & work in traditional Algonquin lands, as well as those who visit for business & leisure. 🔥It has the under ocean world energy of Lemuria/Hawaii….. 🔥 The tree of life has a knot hole/crater to the under world of plains of Siberia …. 🔥 The outer world of the Sun Pyramid in the Valley of the Pyramids in Bosnia which is connected to ancient Atlantis. 🔥 All connected together by the Tree of Life and the Rainbow Bridge to our Ancestors shown in the northern lights.
