West Vancouver - 2006 Cultural Capital ProgramTotem Pole Raising Ceremony

 

 

February 17 between 2 pm and

4 pm

 to commemorate the opening of the

One Moon Gallery

To honor artist  Darlene Gait

 

The Esquimalt Nation honors  Darlene Gait , one of its members on Saturday February 17 between 2 pm and 4 pm with a Totem Pole Raising Ceremony to commemorate the opening of the One Moon Gallery to showcase her paintings and art. The Gallery is located at 1192 Kosapsum Crecent directly across the new buildings of the Band Council and the Long House on the Esquimalt Reserve.

 

The ceremonies will include a presentation by  Lou Charlie, an elder representing the Band,  a Native Dance group from Esquimalt, as well as the presence of Chief Andy Thomas  as well as Coast Salish artist Doug La Fortune who carved the pole,   and other members of the Esquimalt Nation and community at large.  

 

The pole is a gift from  George Thomas to his sister Anna Marie Gait, both of whom are elders of the Esquimalt Nation. The pole was originally carved and presented in honor of Rob Thomas and Joe Thomas who were the best friends of Doug La Fortune. It represents an eagle and a dragon which remembers the spirit of those being honored.The pole will be placed in front of the One Moon Gallery and dedicated to all the people of the Esquimalt Nation.

 

Darlene Gait is an accomplished First Nation artist who began painting as a child. Darlene's paintings and poetry celebrate her love for her Coast Salish culture and her images bring to life the rich traditions and oral history of the First People of the north west. Her art also reflects her passion for protecting the environment and wildlife, as well as her Baha'i beliefs in the oneness of humanity and the beauty of its diversity. Her work is unique in that it is created with emotions that allow the viewer to connect and relate to the stories told through her brush.

 

Darlene is recognized internationally, her art is exhibited and held in private and public collections worldwide.  Her art  has been featured on the cover of national publications in the United States and her images are published by Rizvan Fine Arts, Island Art as well as Orca Publishing. Darlene has completed many commissions as a book illustrator of Native stories for children, including the best seller 'The Secret of the Dance' written by Andrea Spalding and Judge Alfred Scow,  which takes readers back to a time when the Potlatch was once banned in Canada.

 

Darlene's paintings are often inspired by her vivid dreams. She believes her dreams must be captured by her brush and poetry and then shared. Darlene feels bound by the responsibility to depict all her images with scientific and historical accuracy, as she considers her art to be part of the oral history of her culture. She is self taught and has studied commercial illustration, graphic design and multimedia.

 

Darlene Gait has received many awards including The Book Illustrator of the Year Award, Verse and Vision Peoples Choice Award, and The Aboriginal Achievement Foundation Award, to name a few. Her exhibitions have received wide press and television coverage. Darlene is an invited member of the Worldwide Nature Artists Group (WNAG) , the world's foremost international organization of nature artists, dedicated to the celebration and preservation of our natural heritage, and  includes such prominent artists as Robert Bateman , John Banovich, Gamini Ratnavira, and David Shepherd .

Darlene Gait lives in Vancouver Island, with her family. She supports many non-profit organizations through volunteering and through her donations of art. She is an active member of the of Art for Development Foundation as well as Partners For Prosperity. ¨

We also intend to develop long term partnerships with local business,Tourism and the community to show potential visitors from all over the world that Nanaimo supports a strong multi cultural and diverse society.

The Ravens and Eagles Gathering

 

Today, few art forms in the world attain the notoriety or stature of instant recognition. Northwest Coast Native Art does.  Classed with such ancient art forms as Egyptian and Roman art Northwest Coast Native Art is one of the strongest and most definable art forms known to man.  Imagine though, unlike the Egyptians and Romans, we are fortunate to view this art while it is still a living art form.   

 

Here is your opportunity!  Visit the Ravens and Eagles Gathering at Nanoose community centre this March 31st to April 2nd .  Participants of this juried event include Eli Milton, master toolmaker; Henry Green, Master carver; Gordon Dick, Gold/Silversmith and many other artists  from throughout British Columbia.

 

Come and see artists at work!!  This year we will have sculptors, painters, carvers, toolmakers and other specialty artists in attendance and working on-site.  Not only are many of the artists in attendance not usually in the public eye but also this will be a unique opportunity for the public to see projects that may otherwise go unseen.  There will be a wealth of knowledge at the gathering and questions are always welcome. 

 

This event was such a success last year that an additional day and more events have been added this year.   We are excited to be hosting a fashion show with beautiful, hand-made coutures by local artist Bill Helin.  Don’t miss it!  Friday, March 31st at 7:30pm, at Nanoose Community Centre.

 

The Ravens and Eagles Gathering is proud to be part of the 16th annual Brant Wildlife Festival.  Admission is $5 at the door.  All proceeds will benefit the Brant Festival, Girl Guides and Native Youth programs.  For more information please contact Jeremy at Coastal Carvings Fine Art Gallery in Coombs, BC  250-954-0554.

 

For a very informative and interactive visit with both master carvers and the ‘up and coming’ talent stop by the Ravens and Eagles Gathering.  Dates:  Friday, March 31st  , 11am- 9pm (fashion show @ 7:30);  Saturday, April 1st, 10am- 5pm;  Sunday, April 2nd 10am- 4pm.  Location:  Nanoose community centre, 2925 Northwest Bay Rd, Nanoose, BC.
