We enjoyed photographing the totems and petroglyphs outside but unfortunately the musem is closed due to C19. We were told they have a great potlatch collection so will have go back another time.
Extremely well done, small historical presentations of artifacts. Helpful staff. If you visit at the right time you can see a totem pole being carved. Great location.
We just happened on this beautiful center and discovered that it was the best part of our trip on Quadra. We learned so much about current and historical issues. This center shows the huge positive impact on a community of repatriation of it artifacts. Beautifully preserved and respectfully interpreted. A must see for any QI visitor. Highly recommended. Also, dont forget to check out the canoe along the shore a little further north.
My family enjoyed our visit. My children were very engaged in the various displays and exhibits. Petroglyphs were a huge hit!
Great education centre! very hands on, my girls learnt to work with ceder bark. My husband and I learnt about the work the first nations are carrying out now .
Its worth taking the ferry to Quadra just to see this small but excellent museum and the village. It houses a sacred potlach collection of repatriated artifacts -- masks, ceremonial dress, canoes, totems. The items are wonderful and the interpretation is excellent. We arrived just when an elder was telling stories -- an unexpected treat. And there is a carving shed next door where they are carving totems.
Go see this!
