BCMA Repatriation Call to Action
In the spirit of Truth & Reconciliation, we are proud to have signed the BC Museum Associations Call to Action for the repatriation of First Nations cultural artifacts to their rightful homes. For many years, we have worked to identify and repatriate ceremonial and burial items from our collection, and we are dedicated to this vital and important work. Our Repatriation Policy can be viewed here.
In the July 2021 issue of Macleans Magazine, the Sunshine Coast Museum & Archives is featured as a repatriation success story in Jaela Bernstein's article "When it's Time to Give Back". The article outlines our work with the the Squamish Lil'wat Cultural Centre to return significant cultural items to the Lil'wat Nation. Read this great article here!
