Beverley Brown fonds

  • 17
  • Fonds
  • [ca. 1937 - ca.1949]

The fonds consists of 478 photographs, predominantly of students at the St. Michael’s Residential School in Alert Bay. Beverley Brown and her friends took the photographs between ca. 1937 and ca. 1945 using Brown’s camera. Photographs from this period include shots of the students with their friends and of social events, as well as posed class photographs. These class photographs were taken by school supervisors who subsequently sold the prints to other students. Other photographs were taken in Brown’s hometown, Bella Bella, and in the area of the Namu cannery. These show weddings, fishing boats, landscapes, and buildings. Peter Mason Sr., Brown’s father, had the photographs developed in Vancouver.

The fonds has been arranged into three series:

  1. St. Michael’s Residential School photographs
  2. Bella Bella photographs
  3. Langley High School photographs

Bill Reid: “Gathering Strength”

The records in this sub-series relate to the semi-permenant exhibition Gathering Strength, which took place after Bill Reid passed away in 1998. Karen Duffek curated the Haida metalwork component of the exhibition, and aided in the development of the accompanying electronic component as well. The exhibition was on display from 2000 through 2004. Records relate to exhibition development and planning, educational and display materials, and correspondence.

Bill Reid: Beyond the Essential Form

Series consists of two photographic prints made by photographer Ulli Steltzer. Both images were used in Duffek’s book Bill Reid: Beyond the Essential Form, which was published as part of the Museum Note series in conjunction with the Museum of Anthropology’s 1986 exhibition of the same name. One image is from the pole raising ceremony for one of Reid’s pole at Skidegate in 1978. The other shows a canoe carved by Reid being paddled at Skidegate in April 1986.
