Inuit Heritage Centre

The Inuit Heritage Centre is a living center and plays an educational role within and outside the community.

(Museum)
The Centre represents the culture of nine different groups of Inuit that used to live in the Baker Lake area but have now settled in the Hamlet of Baker Lake. The collection consists of handmade traditional objects as well as artifacts and art on loan from other institutions such as The Canadian Museum of Civilization, The Prince of Wales Northern Heritage Centre, The MacDonald Stewart Art Centre and the Winnipeg Art Gallery. A room, for the elders, is included in the Centre for a place to meet, record oral histories and teach the youth about the traditional way of life.
