A Style All Our Own: Canadian Woodland Artists

Wednesday, October 9

Dennos Museum Center, NMC, TC
Art
$0-$10

In the early 1960s, young Indigenous artists from the Great Lakes region created a unique style of painting known as the Woodland School of Art. Early members of this prolific art community included Norval Morrisseau, Carl Ray, Roy Thomas, Sam Ash, Jackson Beardy, and Daphne Odjig. Perhaps the best-known of the group is Norval Morrisseau, who is often referred to as the Father of the Woodland School. Runs through May 25. Open Tues. through Sun., 11am-4pm. Closed on major holidays.
