@ THE LAKE OF THE WOODS MUSEUM & DOUGLAS FAMILY ART CENTRE
People of the Watershed: Photographs by John Macfie features a selection of artifacts and 120 colour photographs taken from the 1940s through the 1960s, featuring Indigenous people from communities in Treaties 3, 5, and 9 during a period of rapid transition. This exhibition is spread across both facilities.
@ THE DOUGLAS FAMILY ART CENTRE:
Itinerant Sketches: C. Nickerson is an exhibition of oil landscape paintings of Kenora, from a visit to our region in fall of 2024. The show revolves around the observations she made, a snapshot from her point of view. Walking, driving, canoeing and boating Nickerson turned her eyes to the landscape, and observed the layered human footprint through architecture, infrastructure, landmarks, and lifestyles.
