The Exham Years
The Church, Art and Life in Old Crow, 1965-1969
This Exhibit
Reverend Kenah Exham and his wife. Beth-Anne Exham lived and worked in Old Crow, the Yukon's northermost community, from 1965-69. During this time they acquired many fine examples of Gwich'in art work.
This is the story of daily life in Old Crow during that time as seen by Mrs. Exham. In particular, we look at the art and the people who made it.
The exhibit featured on this website is a companion piece to the physical display of the Exhams' artworks at the Old Log Church Museum in Whitehorse, Yukon. It was made possible by the kind contributions of Mrs. Exham who provided the artwork and photographs.
