In commemoration of the 25th Anniversary of Ivvavik National Park of Canada and the Inuvialuit Final Land Claim Agreement (June 2009), Northern Images is proud to host Parks Canada's permanent collection and additional works inspired by the artists' experience in Ivvavik National Park: "Art in the Park".

Opening March 20th, 2010 in Inuvik, the 'Art in the Park' exhibit will subsequently travel to Northern Images, Yellowknife for April 30th, 2010.
After that, it will open at Northern Images, Churchill on July 1st, 2010, in celebration of Canada Day. Featuring work from 24 artists, this exhibit includes pieces from artists from across Canada, around the world, and residing in the Inuvialuit Settlement Region; all participants in Parks Canada's 'Artists in the Park' program in Ivvavik National Park. As part of their agreement with Parks Canada, each artist selects one piece to become part of the permanent collection; as well, the 'Art in the Park' exhibit includes other pieces from 'Artists in the Park' participants, derived from their time at Ivvavik.

Northern Images invites all who love art, and the north (and particularly, northern art) to join in our appreciation for the timeless wonder of our beautiful Arctic environment, and the incredible creativity of the artists it inspires. ..."
