Nouvelles recettes / New recipes! takes place in Montréal, which is known in the Mohawk language as Tiotià:ke or Broken in Two because of the way the river breaks around the island. MTL Clowns acknowledges that our festival takes place on unceded Indigenous lands. Tiohtiá:ke is historically known as a gathering place of creativity, storytelling, community and culture for First Nations and Indigenous communities including but not limited to the Kanien’kehá:ka (Mohawk) of the Haudenosaunee Confederacy, Huron/Wendat, Abenaki, and Anishinaabeg (Algonquin). We respect the past, present and future of Indigenous peoples in Tiohtiá:ke and we stand in solidarity with the Indigenous members of our community and beyond.
