INUIT & DENE ART
INUIT & DENE ART
Inuit and Dene art is admired around the world for its craftsmanship, storytelling, and deep connection to the land. Artists create carvings, prints, beadwork, wall hangings, jewelry, and many other forms that reflect Northern culture and identity.
When you buy art through the Co-op System, you support artists directly. Co-ops ensure fair prices and help artists earn income while staying rooted in their communities.
How Arctic Co-ops Supports Artists
• Wholesale: Canadian Arctic Producers (CAP) markets artwork worldwide.
• Retail: Northern Images sells authentic Inuit and Dene art online.
A Tradition of Supporting Artists
In the 1960s, many Co-ops were established to support traditional arts. Some even mined and supplied soapstone for artists, then marketed finished carvings globally through CAP, helping artists earn sustainable incomes.
