Endless Festivities

Due to the brutally long winters, Inuvik has adopted a "no messing around" policy when it comes to summer festivities. As a result, we found ourselves attending and/or volunteering at multiple local extravaganzas this week, including Ocean's Day(s), the Great Northern Arts Festival, and the town's 50th birthday celebration. Amazingly, the same band plays at all events simultaneously (though I am incapable of explaining the hows of this curious phenomenon).

An audio recording of the women elders from Yellowknife's throat-singing performance will be added at a later date...so stay tuned.
