NWT Arts was in the South Slave Region last week installing a new display in Fort Resolution and refreshing others in Hay River and Fort Smith. The displays showcase artists from the region’s communities and provide information on where you can buy authentic NWT Art in the area.

The new display in Fort Resolution can be found in the Office Complex and showcases work by artists registered with the program who reside in the hamlet.
The NWT Arts Program is a marketing initiative that represents artists across the NWT, including traditional arts and fine crafts, contemporary arts, performing arts, literary arts, and film and media arts.
