The Flin Flon Credit Union is hosting the Manitoba 150 Art Tour in front of their location at 36 Main Street Friday.  Manitoba 150 Co-Chair Stuart Murray says the tour is sponsored by Manitoba Credit Unions and features a new display of Inuit Art which comes from Qaumajug the Inuit Art Gallery that the Winnipeg Art Gallery has just launched with all of this Inuit Art and that has been in Tour 150 in the vehicle.  He says when it gets to Flin Flon people should come out and see it because it’s really quite spectacular.  He notes it is accessible so anybody in a chair will have an opportunity to experience it as well.  He adds he just thinks it’s an opportunity for communities outside of Winnipeg to take advantage of some of this great Inuit Art that is featured in the Winnipeg Art Gallery.

The display includes Inuit art in soapstone, felt, print, textile and other materials.  The display will be open from 11 to 3 Friday in front of the Flin Flon Credit Union.
