THANK YOU TO THE DONORS

The Museum of Archaeology and Ethnology would like to acknowledge the generosity of the donor who gifted this argillite collection. It was amassed while resident in Prince Rupert directly from the many carvers he came to know and respect.

We are grateful to be trusted as caretakers for the collection and hope it continues to inspire Museum visitors for years to come.
