For Immediate Release

 

Arctic Co-operatives Limited Launches New Northern Images Website

WINNIPEG, MB – Arctic Co-operatives Limited is proud to announce the launch of its newly redesigned Northern Images (NI) website - www.northernimages.ca

 

The new website has been specifically redesigned to enhance the overall customer experience by improving the ease of navigation, optimizing photo views and providing e-commerce capabilities. The site also contains feature areas and special promotions.

 

Arctic Co-operatives Limited (ACL) is a service federation owned and controlled by 31 community-based co-operatives in Nunavut and the Northwest Territories. Its art marketing arm, Northern Images (NI) is dedicated to supporting and promoting the artists and products of Arctic Canada.

 

ACL purchases art from co-operatives and takes full responsibility for the marketing of the art. Each piece is tagged for authenticity and artists are paid a fair price for their product.  Working exclusively with Inuit and Dené artists, ACL/NI promotes their art and distinctive culture to collectors around the world.

 

Northern Images supports and promotes northern artists and their products by marketing Inuit and Dené arts and crafts in galleries located in Churchill, Inuvik and Yellowknife.  These galleries offer a breath-taking selection of authentic sculptures, prints, books, jewellery, giftware, northern apparel and hand-made crafts.

 

Traditional Inuit art captures the beauty, truth and spirit of Canada's Arctic. Authentic hand-crafted sculptures tell the stories of the imaginations and memories of a truly unique people.  Prints and drawings depict the wildlife, landscapes, history and culture of our northern neighbours. 

 

Northern Images is one of the largest retailers of Inuit and Dené arts and crafts in Canada.
