Leroy Henry
Leroy Henry is a member of the Turtle Clan, Cayuga Nation, of the Six Nations Confederacy.
Born in 1974, Leroy has enjoyed carving since
the age of ten. He is active in the traditional sports of lacrosse and snow-snake, but mostly enjoys sharing the traditional ways of his Elders through the tales
of his sculptures.
His large sculpture “Eagle Tree of Peace” in the
heart of Huron University's campus in London serves as a center-piece and symbolize reconciliation between his community and the Anglican Church.
