Ancestors: Indigenous Peoples of Western Canada in Historic Photographs

Ancestors: Indigenous Peoples of Western Canada in Historic Photographs

This exhibition will explore a selection of photographs from a rich and diverse collection with potential for enhancing our understanding of the history, economies, culture, ceremonies, and art of the Indigenous Peoples of the western provinces. By sharing the many insights and perspectives generously provided to them by Elders and keepers of traditional knowledge, the curators (Sarah Carter and Inez Lightning) hope to show us some of the ways that the photographs in this exhibition represent more than moments frozen in time; they carry stories and legacies into the future.

View this exhibition in Bruce Peel Special Collections (basement of Rutherford South). The website for Bruce Peel Special Collections offers detailed information about this exhibition as well as information about research collections and Peel Workshops.
