Inuvik’s drum dancers





Inuvik’s Aboriginal Day celebrations included some traditional drum dancing on an outdoor stage. What a spectacle!

All the dances are short (one minute approx) scenes, which describe everyday activities like chopping wood, hunting ducks, or stomping snow.

Some dancers are in their 80s, while others are five years old.
