Eva Suluk

A founding member of our arts collective, Eva Suluk is a cultural connector specializing in traditional knowledge, drumming and oral history storytelling. Her work has been supported by the Canada Council for the Arts. An Inuit artist residing in Arviat, Nunavut, she is renowned for her expertise in preparing dried caribou meat. She has been featured in the IsumaTV series "Inuit Makers," specifically in the segment titled "Drying Caribou," which showcases her traditional skills and knowledge in meat preservation.
Cultural advisors Lucy Eetak (left) and Eva Suluk (right) enjoy a day of drying meat and reconnecting with the land that grounds their knowledge and care, near Arviat, Nunavut. Their collaborative spirit and visible joy highlight the importance of their role in passing on traditional skills and cultural wisdom.

Qauruti: Wearing Our Culture with Dignity and Pride

In our culture, the Qauruti is more than a headband—it’s a symbol of who we are and where we come from.

In Arviat, generations gather to share maktaaq—whale skin and blubber—carrying on traditions through food, memory, and kinship. In every slice, every taste, there is a reminder: food is more than nourishment. It’s how we belong.

In Every Bite, a Story

I’ve come to understand that in the quiet momentswhen hands are busy and mouths are full—something deeper is happening.

With the steady curve of the ulu, generations of Inuit women have transformed the gifts of the land and sea into warmth, sustenance, and art. Here, the careful work of preparing sealskin connects us to ancient traditions and a profound respect for the animal.

From Skin to Stitch

Ah, the ulu. Just holding it in my hand connects me to generations of Inuit who have come before. This isn't just a knife; it's…

In Music

Jukebox In Exile is the new country music album from Flin Flon singer-songwriter C.C. Trubiak, blending classic country, honky-tonk, Americana and traditional storytelling into a collection of songs inspired by resilience, community and life in Northern Manitoba. Written during and after the 2025 Flin Flon wildfire evacuation, the album draws influence from country music legends including Willie Nelson, Dolly Parton, Emmylou Harris, Waylon Jennings and George Jones. Featuring the singles "Old Country Songs," "Being Rich" and the charting track "Outlaws Meditation," Jukebox In Exile showcases Trubiak's signature songwriting while celebrating small-town life, northern Canadian culture, queer country music and the enduring spirit of Flin Flon. The album is available now on major music streaming platforms.
Manitoba's own C.C. Trubiak's new album "Jukebox in Exile" dropped on June 5! Check it out!
