Chilkoot Trail Artist in Residence

Art is alive on the Chilkoot Trail

In previous years, the Yukon Arts Centre, Parks Canada, the Skagway Arts Council, and the National Park Service provide opportunities for established visual artists to pursue their work inspired by history and nature on the Chilkoot Trail. Artists hike the entire trail during a two week backpacking trip, spending one to three days at each campsite. They interact with hikers, create art, and share their experience.

During their residency each artist gives a talk at Sheep Camp and Lindeman City campgrounds. Once off the trail they present their experience and some of their work in Whitehorse, YT and Skagway, AK.
