“Minôjitonigewin” (Min-O-jiton-eh-geh-win) is an expression or explanation for someone doing something skillfully and with good intent, it can be used in crafting, writing and painting – meaning someone has honed a skill. Minôjitonigewin is an Algonquin word, and this award was named by an Algonquin knowledge keeper and student at Carleton University. This scholarship will allow students to hone their own skills as they explore their passion for Indigenous arts and culture.
