MOA Haida Village Complex

 Greetings friends!  Our beautiful and charming host Ivana took us to UBC, and we saw this fabulous sculpture series.  The complex includes two Haida houses, and six totem poles which were created (between 1960 and 1962) by Haida artist Bill Reid and Namgis artist Doug Cranmer and raised by Haida artist Jim Hart.  There are also two poles carved in the 50s by Kwakwaka'wakw chief Mungo Martin.  Hell yeah.
