Norman Tait and John Livingston artwork
File consists of images of artwork by John Livingston, Art Thompson, Susan Point (carved and painted chairs, kneeling stools, boxes), as well as images of masks that may be the work of Norman Tait.
Vickie Jensen's description (from November 2021 archival accession notes): "I heard that Norman carved the mace for the provincial chambers but haven't seen any photos of it; these photos [not taken by Vickie] seem to show the chair and kneeling bench (?) that John Livingston carved and that Norman is helping to assemble. [Also consists of] photos Vickie took of an old chair that a classmate brought to Klee Wyck carving class one night. She specialized in restoring old art work and had received this chair to work on. There's a business card with the photos, but I don't remember that person."

Consists of photographs taken of social events and carvers connected to the Tait project, but not officially part of the project itself. Jensen was invited to a number of feasts and parties hosted by the Tait family, which she often photographed, making a gift of the pictures to the family members. At one of the parties, a family member performed a dance wearing a mask made to represent Jensen and her camera, complete with the sound of the shutter. In addition to events, Jensen met a number of artists, both Indigenous and non-Indigenous, through her acquaintance with the Taits, and she often photographed them.
