Examine this collection of stories, extraordinary embroideries, photos and video from the diverse tribal population that inhabits Kutch.

Full Circle: First Contact

Vikings and Skraelings in Newfoundland and Labrador
Ongoing until February 2003

Once considered to be legend, Viking contact with the Aboriginal peoples (Skraelings) of North America is proven through the evidence uncovered at l'Anse aux Meadows in Newfoundland. FULL CIRCLE: First Contact chronicles humankind's exodus from Africa and into the New World. Some would turn left and some would turn right, but they would meet one hundred thousand years later on the east coast of Canada. With more than 250 artifacts, photos, scale models, artist's impressions and maps, FULL CIRCLE: First Contact shakes our previous understanding of our past.

Yuquot: The Centre of Our World
Ongoing until October 29, 2002. Discover the rich history of the Mowachaht &endash; Muchalaht First Nations people, told in their own voice.

Portrait V2K. The City of Vancouver Millennium Story & Photograph Collection. Ongoing. Highlighting some of the city's most compelling memories and anecdotes, this exhibit features Vancouver images that are both affectionate and evocative.
