Poem written by: Dan Mercredi

​

Step into Fort Chipewyan's museum, a portal to the past,
Where history unfolds, memories ever-lasting, steadfast.
Behold the treasures that whisper tales of old,
Stories of resilience and traditions to behold.

In this sanctuary of artifacts, you'll find,
A glimpse into the lives of those left behind.
From ancient tools to traditional attire,
Each item carries a tale, igniting a fire.

Explore the rich tapestry of cultures intertwined,
As you wander through exhibits, a journey you'll find.
Learn of the First Nation people, their traditions and ways,
Preserved within these walls, for all future days.

Marvel at the artifacts with curiosity and awe,
For they hold the essence of a time long gone.
From fishing gear to ceremonial regalia worn,
Each piece a testament, to be admired and adorned.

The museum is a treasure trove, waiting to be explored,
With stories untold, yet yearning to be restored.
Come visit and witness the legacy it imparts,
A place where history thrives, captivating hearts.

Join us on a voyage through time's timeless embrace,
Where every exhibit unveils a unique face.
Step into Fort Chipewyan's museum, a haven so grand,
Discover the beauty of the past, hand in hand.

So heed our invitation, embark on this quest,
To learn, to feel, to truly be blessed.
Visit the museum, immerse in its historical delight,
And witness the wonders that come to life, day and night.
