I went there a long time ago, when we called it FROBISHER BAY. I saw all the amazing soap stone carvings, skins being dried, deliveries coming in by water. It was an amazing experience and I would love to go back. The pretty arctic wildflowers were in bloom and the kids played hockey in the streets until the wee hours of the morning.

Nunavut Arts Festival was a great success! Some of the event highlights were a fur sale and country food taste testing as well as an Art Market. Great time!
