Royal British Columbia Museum: Thunderbird Park

Curated by ACT

This online exhibit explores the transformation of British Columbia's Thunderbird Park, a park established to display totem poles and other carvings by the First Nations' people. Interactive "maps" documenting the park's history from before 1939 to the present provide images of buildings, trees, canoes, totem poles, grave markers, and other carvings that, when clicked on, lead users to photographs of exhibit items, brief articles, and more. Includes image galleries, video clips, related activities, and resources for teachers.
