• Tsimshian weaver William White from Lax Kw’alaams has been publicly weaving a child- size Chilkat robe this summer as part of a “living” exhibition entitled My Ancestors are Still Dancing. In July, the artist set up his loom and pattern board in Gallery 8, alongside a display of his own weavings, some historical weavings from MOA’s collection, and historical and contemporary photographs of people wearing Chilkat regalia. This September, the completed weaving will be lifted from the loom in a small private ceremony.
• MOA created a website to document the weaver’s progress, and to explore the significance of the Chilkat tradition: http://www.moa.ubc.ca/williamwhite/WhiteIntro.html.

Dundas at Metlakatla, BC, in 1863. MOA is the last stop on the exhibition’s cross- country tour, which began in April 2006 in Tsimshian territory, where these important cultural pieces originated, and where they had not been seen for more than a century. Following their display at MOA in 2008, the objects will be returned to their present owners, who purchased the majority of them at auction in October 2006.

• From the late 1800s to the early 1900s, Charles and Isabella Edenshaw produced Haida art that continues to inspire the finest Haida artists of today, many of whom are their descendants. What is the aesthetic that makes their work recognizable and so respected? How has it remained contemporary for more than 100 years? This exhibit addresses these and other questions by highlighting Charles Edenshaw’s engraved silver bracelets, as well as his wife Isabella’s basketry, which Charles painted. Join curator Bill McLennan at 7 pm on Tuesday, November 30 for a talk and tour of the exhibit. Media sponsor The Georgia Straight.
