Arts and Artists


First Nations people believe that artists are gifted individuals, and that the artists' work may reflect special messages.

There are many gifted artists in the Sagkeeng First Nations community and the surrounding area in Manitoba, Canada.

Many of these artists have contributed of their talent, their skill and labour in the building and some of their art is embedded in the walls and pillars of The Turtle Lodge.

This web-page is devoted to bringing you images of the art and some of the artists.

Consistent with the view of economic self-sufficiency, some of the art is for sale. Some, or all of the proceeds may be donated by the artists for the continued building and operation of The Turtle Lodge.

To check on availability of the art for your purchase and pricing or if you would like to commission a special piece of work, please e-mail us with your city address: art@theturtlelodge.com.
