Dakwakada and Dinner
2019-12-09 16:00 - 18:00 UTC | Yukon Transportation Museum, 30 Electra Crescent, Whitehorse, Yukon, Y1A 0M7, Canada
We’ve twisted the Gingerbread House tradition Yukon-style into the Holiday Dakwakada tradition. Transportation across this Yukon landscape requires reliable supplies. From time immemorial to the present day, a high cache functions as a place to keep your supplies safe and dry.
Imagine the feeling as you walk up to your high cache on a cold winter day. Pride. You may have built it, you certainly cared for it. You worked hard and planned ahead.
Knowing what you need is caring for yourself.

5:00 – Stew and Bannock Dinner (while the icing hardens)

A second Dakwakada & Dinner takes place from 4-6 on December 17th at the Da Kų Cultural Centre in Haines Junction.

Encounters
2020-07-31 10:00 - 14:00 UTC | Yukon
Encounters Sculpture Workshop
This year marks 100 Years of Yukon Aviation.
How can we conceivably imagine what it was like to encounter those first aircraft appearing over the horizon a century ago?

We invite you to explore the wonder of flight and the myriad strangeness of the 2020 Covid-19 situation through a solitary sculpture creation workshop. This workshop has been devised by the Yukon Transportation Museum, Nicole Bauberger, and Heather Von Steinhagen to be delivered to you without face to face interaction, without Zoom!, and in a geographically interesting area.
You will leave from the starting point without knowledge of what to expect, other than knowing you are expected to complete a sculpture with provided and found items over the next several hours. Early in your hike you will receive direction from a surprising encounter from the sky.
Spots for this workshop are limited. Apply today by emailing info@goYTM.ca
