Labrador Innu Nation Cultural Facility

The Labrador Innu Nation Cultural Facility is part of the pan-Canadian movement to repatriate artifacts belonging to the First Peoples, scattered across the world's museums without their authorization. The facility will repatriate artifacts from the Canadian Museum of History and others, housing them to the highest museum conservation standards. It will also include exhibition, learning and creative spaces, as well as an Innu-run visitor centre for the new Akamiu-Uapishku National Park.

The two-storey building will be nestled into the slope of the land, gently integrating into the forest canopy while preserving views of Little Lake. Visitors will discover the "Walking the Nutshimit" trail, both outdoors and throughout the building. The expression of Innu culture will guide the architectural design, with wood as a central and defining material.
