Ełexègots'edo – Sharing our Stories.

In February 2013, a group of students, teachers and elders from the Tłı̨chǫ region travelled to Yellowknife to participate in a workshop at the Prince of Wales Northern Heritage Centre (PWNHC). Communities represented were Gametı̀, Whatı̀ and Behchokò. The participants spent two days looking at objects from the collections of the museum. These objects were carefully selected from the Tłı̨chǫ region and are being preserved and cared for at the museum. This book represents the collection of information gathered during the workshop.

From October 2006 till August 2007, the Prince of Wales Northern Heritage Centre (PWNHC) hosted an exhibit of 50 objects of Dene manufacture selected from the collection of the National Museums of Scotland (NMS). Collected in the NWT in the mid-19th century, the NMS Dene collection stands as one of the world’s best from this time period. The exhibit catalogue, ‘De T’a Hoti Ts’eeda: We Live Securely from the Land,’ presents Dene perspectives on each of the objects and provides commentary from representatives of the exhibit projects partners: Tlicho Government, National Museums of Scotland, University of Dundee, and the PWNHC.
