TWO NATIONAL HISTORIC SITES

We the Mi’kmaq of Metepenagiag have lived in this place since time immemorial. We have always known this. It has been handed down to us through generations of oral history. Our people have lived on this land, a vibrant and spiritual life, and inseparable from Mother Earth.

We have fished and hunted, built vessels for transportation, traded to the far reaches of the earth, spoke our language, raised children, buried our dead and celebrated the new seasons with reverence and respect. We are a communal people – self sufficient, steady, proud. Through all adversity of time, we have endured.

So beautiful!!

Introducing the exquisite OHalloran Coat, a meticulously replicated masterpiece that pays homage to the original 1841 design. MHP, in collaboration with the Museum, was honored to present this exceptional piece of artistry for public display. This coat stands as a symbol of both the remarkable talent of past and present artists and a profound tribute to our ancestors who crafted it with unrivaled skill.Image attachmentImage attachment+3Image attachment
