  • Oscardo, a trusted supplier of quality products for over 35 years.

    Oscardo entered the Canadian and Indigenous gift and souvenirs market in 1997 with the acquisition of Skemo, a producer of Indigenous themed gifts since 1956. To expand the business we signed indigenous artists, leading the industry by paying royalties on every product sold.

    As our reputation grew for producing innovative quality products, we successfully acquired licenses to reproduce some of Canada’s most iconic indigenous artwork on everyday products. Currently over 20 artists are represented within the Oscardo family. We feel privileged to be able to help promote their art to Canadians and visitors alike.

    Today, Oscardo is one of Canada’s leading Indigenous gift suppliers and our products are found in Indigenous stores and wholesalers, boutiques, museums, public and private art galleries, National Parks and government organizations in every province of Canada.

  • Maxine Noel - Ioyan Mani, Sioux Artist

    Ioyan Mani - to walk beyond - is Maxine's Sioux name that reveals her gift. Maxine is Oglala Sioux, born on the Birdtail Reserve in Manitoba. The eldest of eleven children, she learned to draw among a loving family on a quiet reserve. In residential school she experienced the struggles of submersion of the native spirituality and culture, which brought her strength and enrichment. Maxine was appointed in 2019 as a member of the Order of Canada for her work as a visual artist and for encouraging and promoting creative expression in Indigenous communities.

    A self-taught artist, Maxine is skilled in many media. She seeks through the use of fluid images, flowing lines and subtle colours, to present essential characteristics of the Native people: their sensibilities, generosity and loving nature. Maxine has received honours and accolades for her work with Native cultures, and she speaks around the country on art and on social issues, assisting in bridging the gap between Native and non-Native, young and old.

    Maxine was a recipient of the Order of Canada in 2019 for her notable achievements.
