Workshop
The House of Carving
This building is home to the "Kitanmaax School of Northwest
Coast Indian Art". The school offers a four-year program dedicated
to the renewal and passing of this special art form to succeeding
generations. Students strengthen and build on the old art traditions
by training in the style and skills of master carvers. Many well-established
Northwest Coast artists have marked their beginnings at the Kitanmaax
School. 'Ksan was the first to offer Northwest Coast Indian art
in formal instruction. Contributing in the renaissance of the art
form, Gitanmaax School of Northwest Coast Indian Art has played
a role in elevating the arts profile to a higher degree of popularity
and esteem.
