This presentation about Nunavut and Canada's Arctic is entertaining

of Inuit arts and crafts, soapstone carvings and traditional items.
This presentation is suitable for Grades 1–12, and is followed
by a 15 - 20 minute question and answer session. |
Soapstone
carving was once a practical art of great importance for the Inuit...they
would create tools and weapons for survival using their skills as
artisans. Today soapstone carving is used to create works of art rather
than tools. It is a medium unique to the Inuit culture of Arctic Canada. More Information |
This
