COme find us
We are located in Ucluelet, BC, at 1645 Cedar Rd. right by the government dock in the Whiskey Landing building.
Vancouver Island's wild west coast,
is home to many First Nations, and the history, language and land is held in the beauty, tradition, and evolution of our art. The West Coast nations of the island are known as the Nuu-chah-nulth, which translates loosely to "all along the mountains and sea."
The majority of the art in Cedar House Gallery is made by local Nuu-chah-nulth artists.
We are honoured to be guests and to be located on the territory of the Ucluelet First Nations, in Ucluelet, BC.

The book is written for a very beginner Nuu-chah-nulth language learner, with the majority of the text in English and 40 Nuu-chah-nulth language words mixed in. There is a word list and pronunciation guide included, and a link to hear the words read aloud.
