NG Still Looking for Exhibit Items for Illusuak

The Nunatsiavut Government (NG) was looking for a variety of items from the general public recently to showcase in the exhibits of the Illusuak Cultural Centre.

OK Radio spoke with Chantelle Andersen, Art Program Coordinator for NG, to get an update on what items have been collected so far.

Andersen says that they now have four of the seven items that they have been looking for.

Toby Andersen donated the caribou hide and a stretching board for skins, a sealskin was donated by Elsie Broomfield, and Chesley Webb donated a fox pelt.

They are still looking for a seal hunting shield, a tent canvas, and a spin top made from a thread bobbin.

If you have any of the three items needed, you can contact Chantelle Andersen by phone: 1(709)-923-2365, or email her at chantelle.andersen@nunatsiavut.com, or you can contact your local Community Liaison Officer.
