“Haisla Artists: An Indigenous Art Exhibition” is a one-of-a-kind art exhibit featuring diverse multimedia works by over 20 Haisla artists from Kitamaat and beyond. It is the first-ever all-Haisla community art show put on by the Kitimat Museum & Archives, and we are excited and honoured to be the venue for this incredible, innovative, and dynamic art.  We invite all members of our community to attend the opening reception on Friday, May 10th, 7:00 p.m., at the Lower Level of the City Centre Mall. Come and listen to the opening speakers, watch a performance by the Haisla Braid Singers & Dancers, see images from our archival collection, and enjoy light refreshments. Everyone is welcome.  The Haisla, meaning “dwellers downriver,” have occupied this territory since time immemorial. Today’s Haisla Nation is an amalgamation of two historic bands, the Kitamaat and the Kitlope. The Haisla Nation is centered on Kitamaat Village, home to about 700 of the Nation’s 2000+ members; the rest of whom live in Kitimat, Terrace, Prince Rupert, Vancouver, the United States, and elsewhere. The Haisla artistic tradition has flourished for millennia and remains integral to the culture.  The show will be on display in our Upstairs Gallery during Museum opening hours from May 8th until July 13th 2024. Admission to the Museum is by donation. We are wheelchair-accessible by lift.
