Feels like we should be here all the time. Very inspiring and also, one of our members works here now. Just a block from st. Patrick Station, right near Santosei if you like ramen... Two Galleries, Two shows on now,ᖃᓪᓗᓈᖅᑕᐃᑦ ᓯᑯᓯᓛᕐᒥᑦ Printed Textiles from Kinngait Studios
is on the third floor, mainly prints and fashion from the 50s-70s, and some animation and short films from the same time, as well as some contemporary designers and textile artist working in other medium, like the mixed media work of Janet Nungnik using felt, sewn like skins, as well as beading and embroidery, and a couple of contemporary fashion designers like the dress by the awesomely named InukChic   The mukluks are reversible.
Downstairs on the second floor there is an exhibit aptly called Wild. the first thing you see is a mind blowing display of flora/fauna animals by Emily Jan... she also made the collection of objects on the lower right image. there's also pictures here of art by Omar Badrin and Catherine Blackburn. Lots of inspiration from nature reinterpreted and played with, many different media, all textile art.
