Custom t-shirts, thoughtfully designed by Stacey Johnstone, will be available onsite while supplies last. Each shirt honours Red Dress Day and pays tribute to MMIWG2S+.

“The 2026 Red Dress Day logo brings together figures in a gesture of care and solidarity, holding the red dress at its center. This act of holding reflects the role of community in supporting, remembering, and honouring the lives of Missing and Murdered Indigenous Women, Girls, and Two-Spirit People. The design speaks to lifting these stories out of silence and into awareness, while grounding this work in connection, healing, and collective responsibility.”
