Entwined Histories: The Creation of the Maisie Hurley Collection of Native Art

Academic Work

In the early 1980s, the North Vancouver Museum and Archives (NVMA) was given a significant collection of First Nations art, previously owned by Maisie Hurley - a well-known Vancouver-area political activist and founder of the Native Voice newspaper. Maisie Hurley, who was non-Native, is also distinguished as being the first woman to be admitted to the Native Brotherhood of British Columbia - a First Nations political organization focused on Aboriginal rights and title, particularly as they pertain to fishing (Fuller and Inglis 2000).
