November 2, 2007 – June 7, 2008

From February to June 2008, MOA is hosting Treasures of the Tsimshian from the Dundas Collection, a major exhibition of 48 artifacts collected by the Rev. Robert J. Dundas at Metlakatla, BC, in 1863. MOA is the last stop on the exhibition’s cross- country tour, which began in April 2006 in Tsimshian territory, where these important cultural pieces originated, and where they had not been seen for more than a century. Following their display at MOA in 2008, the objects will be returned to their present owners, who purchased the majority of them at auction in October 2006.

Organized by the Royal BC Museum and co-presented at MOA by Vancouver 2010 Cultural Olympiad
