After months of planning, and with the help of an incredible group of volunteers, we were able to safely remove the front entry pole on the old ceremonial house. After decades of weather, and in the interest of preserving this piece of art, it was removed so that it can be temporarily stored indoors. Once our new museum building is completed, this pole and the house front it was attached to will be on display once again. In the meantime, our volunteers are hard at work sawing cedar logs into new boards for the front of the house. Within this next year work will begin on the new totem pole, installation of the cedar boards, and painting the new house front. This building has not been accessible for decades, we hope that sometime next year we will be able to open the interior to guests.

Was fortunate enough to have met (Don) Chief Lelooska and his family probably 30 years ago. They were an amazing and talented family and Lelooska was a very special soul in so many ways. Not only was he a fantastic carver, and artist, but his storytelling was superb! He left us too soon, but he left us with a wonderful legacy in the foundation and so thankful it is getting the attention it deserves. Everyone working on the project is awesome and thank you for caring. From a friend in north Idaho.
A wonderful human being, who was always so kind to me when I was a mixed up teenager.
Colleen Cawston show dad. Such an amazing capture of his spirit.
I just visited the museum last week. I spent a lot of time there when I was young. It was nice to be there.
Such a great price of history

Cherished memories ❤

After years of planning and volunteer efforts, we are excited to be moving into Phase 2 of the restoration of the old ceremonial house. Last Saturday volunteers spent the day moving lumber piles and removing shelving preparing for this next phase.
