Ruby Bruce

Youth- Métis (2023)

Manitoba Métis Federation, MB

Since the age of 10, Ruby Bruce has been transforming lives through art – and teaching others to do the same, facilitating youth art workshops and creating her first solo mural project by the age of 17. A strong advocate for young Indigenous artists, she is already a Knowledge Keeper. Fiercely proud of her Métis culture, Ruby has and continues to create art for various organizations, projects, zines and businesses including The Mamawi Project, an initiative which establishes spaces for Métis people to celebrate their identity. She was involved in the creation of the St. Laurent Art Space Committee and has designed murals, logos, and numerous other pieces of award-winning work for public spaces. Ruby has not only mentored youth, she is also passionate about continuing her own educational journey, learning Michif and Kanien’kéha, and is pursuing B.A. and B.Ed. degrees. She is a powerful role model for her community and her family.
