Embracing experience. Empowering possibility.

A Northern network of non-formal educators that supports, protects, and celebrates a Northern approach to learning.

What do we do?

Bringing Together Northern Learning

Our non-profit literacy organization is proud to bring together three incredible organizations, working together to make a difference in the lives of individuals and communities.

Shop to Support the North

We are a social enterprise dedicated to championing northern makers and showcasing traditional and innovative products of the North. We believe the creative process is not only a means of cultural or personal expression, but also as a vehicle for developing transferable literacy skills that are foundational to lifelong learning and success.

The society of Shifting Ice is a reflection of the moving landscape unique to Northern learning, requiring us to be agile in a changing world.
