She currently resides in Whitehorse. Karen is an established traditional artisan who has been practicing her art for as long as she can remember. She was inspired to create beautiful pieces using leather, furs and beads by her mother Martha Buyck, who was a skilled artisan in her own right. Karen tries to emulate the beautiful beadwork of her mother while applying her own techniques. Karen handcrafts mukluks, moccasins, mitts & gauntlets, purses, bags and pouches decorated with beadwork or embroidery. She takes great enjoyment from pulling every piece together using color coordination and her keen attention to detail. Karen’s work has been featured in the “What’s Up Yukon” newspaper as well as a short film about her healing journey and using art for meditation and recovery.   SBKN112408M09 

More About Manitobah at Prairie Mall

As a young Métis entrepreneur, Sean McCormick began Manitobah Mukluks with the vision of creating a successful company while benefiting his community. Today we continue that vision on a larger scale, as a global brand making a positive impact in Indigenous communities across North America.Sean McCormick spent much of his childhood in northern Manitoba and started selling leather and fur while still in high school. In 1990, he established a trading post where Indigenous artisans traded handmade mukluks and moccasins for tanned leather, skins and furs. During this time, Sean saw an even greater opportunity to connect members of his community to the growing demand for authentic Indigenous footwear. In 1996, after completing the Manitoba Aboriginal Youth Entrepreneurship Training Program, Sean created the business plan and framework that would become Manitobah. In 2008, Manitobah began global operations and today it is one of Canada’s fastest-growing companies, with employees and customers worldwide. Despite the rapid success and growth of the brand, Manitobah remains connected to its roots and continues to provide authentic, Indigenous-designed products that return value to Indigenous communities. Manitobah became a certified B Corporation in 2023, a designation that demonstrates a business meets high standards of verified performance, accountability, and transparency on factors from employee benefits and charitable giving to supply chain practices and input materials.
