Abstract

In 2000, the University of Victoria (UVic) received a Community-University Research Alliance (CURA) grant by the Social Sciences and Humanities Research Council of Canada, in a new initiative to encourage collaboration between universities and other sectors of the community. Under this grant, which was awarded to the History in Art Department at UVic, projects were undertaken in partnership with community heritage organizations to research and document little known but historically important collections. The
following articles about Pacific Northwest basketry are a product of the preliminary research by UVic students, under the direction of Jennifer lredale.
