2027 Inuit art calendars are here and ready to ship to you! A favorite of our clients and customers for years, these calendars are out together by the West Baffin Inuit Cooperative and are made by artists from the Kinngait (formerly Cape Dorset) region of Baffin Island. The theme this year is family, and following is some of the description given by the cooperative:

“The 2027 Inuit Art Calendar explores the theme of family. Artists from Kinngait draw on various ideas of family, both human and animal, that are central to arctic life. in ‘Family of Eight,’ Tim Pitsiulak captures the joy of a family outing on an ATV, while in ‘My Little Family,’ Ningiukulu Teevee shows a playful owlet peeking out between its parents.

Inuit family life is grounded in strong extended kinship networks that value community, adaptability, and respect between generations. In Inuit culture, knowledge and history are often shred through oral traditions that inspire a bounty of visual interpretations…”

The late artists Rose Williams, Annie Pangowish and Marina Recollet were among an accomplished group of Anishinaabe artists from Manitoulin Island who pushed the boundaries of the art form. They were all true Masters of the art form of making birchbark baskets decorated with porcupine quills, and we feel so blessed to have their incredible work in our online store!

We are just back from the first phase of our summer travels, which took us all around the Eastern and Northern parts of Georgian Bay in Ontario, Canada. We were researching the state of the art form of making Porcupine Quill Boxes among the Anishinaabe people of the Great Lakes. This research was in support of a magnificent collection of Quill Boxes now available on our website.  This collection of Porcupine Quill Boxes is truly historic and includes over 100 pieces. Primarily collected in the 1970’s and 1980’s, it includes works by many of the most famous makers from Manitoulin Island, the shores of Lake Huron and Georgian Bay, and the Harbor Springs area in Michigan. We have had the honor of working with this collection for many years, and the scope and depth of the artistry is breathtaking.   Each box represents countless hours of painstaking labor and generations of artistic knowledge passed from one maker to the next. Sadly, few artists are creating works of this caliber today, making these historic pieces not only beautiful examples of Anishinaabe artistry, but also irreplaceable cultural treasures. All of the boxes in this collection are “in hand” and available for purchase, and we are eager to help you learn more about the art form.

We are so excited to share this stunning collection of Anishinaabe Porcupine Quill boxes with you. Find them live on our website, www.longagoandfaraway.com!
