Biskane Marketplace

30/09/2026

On September 30, the National Day for Truth and Reconciliation, we honour residential school Survivors, remember the children who never returned home, and recognize the lasting impacts on families and communities. 🧡

Trauma can carry across generations. Healing can carry forward, too. With the next seven generations in mind, the healing we support today can help break cycles of trauma and create a different future.

Art can be part of that journey—a way to share stories, reconnect with culture, express difficult experiences, and pass on strength, knowledge, and hope.

At Biskane, we believe supporting Indigenous art begins with valuing the person behind it. Purchasing art from Survivors and their descendants supports their livelihoods and their continued creation. Taking time to hear the stories they choose to share helps us understand their journeys and the meaning within their work.

Today, and throughout the year, make space for Indigenous art, voices, and stories. What we support today can carry forward for next seven generations.

Opening more doors starts with the artists behind the work.

Meet Jolene Robichaud, one of the newest artists joining Biskane’s WINNERS earring initiative.

Jolene is a q***r Acadian and Mi’kmaw artist who grew up in Richibucto, New Brunswick, and is registered with Indian Island First Nation. Now based in Calgary, Jolene runs JR Fashion Designs, bringing creativity to fashion design, artisan work, textiles, and multimedia art.

These beautiful beaded earrings offer a glimpse of Jolene’s work and attention to detail. The pieces pictured are examples of her artistry—not the designs selected for WINNERS. Keep an eye out for other beautiful work by Jolene and fellow Biskane-verified Indigenous artists in upcoming collections at participating WINNERS stores across Canada.

We’re grateful to WINNERS for supporting verified Indigenous artists and helping their work reach new customers.

Powwows, festivals, and conferences remain important places to connect, share, and sell. Opening doors into retail adds another opportunity for artists to grow their businesses and introduce their creativity to people who might otherwise never discover their work.

For me, it’s an honour and a privilege to help make those connections through Biskane.

Over the coming weeks, I’ll be introducing more of the artists and stories behind this work.

Are you an Indigenous artist interested in joining the Biskane online marketplace and learning about potential retail opportunities? Message me “ARTIST,” and I’ll share how to get started.

Please help us welcome Jolene—and share this with an artist who would love to learn more.
