Melaney Gleeson‑Lyall
Melaney Gleeson‑Lyall is a Musqueam, Snaw‑naw‑as, and Lyackson Coast Salish artist whose work reflects her journey as a Sixties Scoop survivor reclaiming culture, identity, and belonging. Through her contemporary Coast Salish designs, she shares stories of resilience, reconnection, and community, and the strength of her ancestral roots. Melaney has led Kairos Blanket exercises at Regent several times over the past decade, and we are grateful for her wisdom and presence among us.
