The MacDonald Collection
The George and Joanne MacDonald Northwest Coast Collection (the MacDonald Collection) was assembled by Dr. George MacDonald and Joanne MacDonald over their long careers in Canadian museology, archaeology, and anthropology. The collection reflects the MacDonalds' admiration and respect for the cultures of the Northwest Coast, their work with communities along the coast, as well as their relationships with museums, archives, universities and colleges.

Open to Collaborate
The BRC is proud to attribute the “Open to Collaborate” CI Notice to our entire digital collection. This notice indicates a commitment to collaborate with Indigenous communities as we continue our important work of decolonizing and reconciling at Simon Fraser University.
Developed by Locoal Contexts, CI Notices are icons associated with descriptions designed to be used by collecting institution who are engaged in processes of collaboration and trust building with Indigenous communities.
The CI Notice is one way for the Bill Reid Centre to signal to those who use the collection that we are actively working to improve our Indigenous collections, and that we welcome collaborations with Indigenous communities in this work.
