The 'Micmac Indian Craftsmen' of Elsipogtog rose to national prominence in the early 1960s. Inspired by traditional Wabanaki stories, they created an eclectic range of original work that appeared on prints, silkscreened notecards, tapestries, jewellery, and porcelain. Now, for the first time, the story of this ground-breaking co-operative of modern Indigenous artists is told in full.
