MOA is committed to promoting awareness and understanding of culturally diverse ways of knowing the world through challenging and innovative programs and partnerships with Indigenous, local and global communities.
MOA supports the principles of the United Nations Declaration on the Rights of Indigenous Peoples, including originating communities’ right to “maintain, control, protect and develop their cultural heritage, traditional knowledge and traditional cultural expression.”
This elegant sterling silver pendant showcases the salmon, designed with precision and care by Arthur W. Sterritt. Sterritt was born in 1948 in Hazelton, BC, as a proud member of the Gitga’at First Nation. Through his work, Art has brought awareness to the importance of Canada’s rainforests, and has pushed for many successful land and marine initiatives of the Pacific Northwest Coast. He has become an internationally recognized voice for not just Indigenous Canadians, but for all Canadians who are defining the issues and struggles of our time.
Arthur is also a well-known sculptor and goldsmith in British Columbia. His work can now be found in museums and private collections throughout North America, including his collaboration on the Museum of Anthropology’s world-famous ‘Ksan doors. The doors demonstrate Northwest Coast woodworking skills and were carved by Art Sterritt, alongside fellow ‘Ksan master carvers, Walter Harris, Earl Muldoe and Vernon Stephens. The doors can be viewed in the MOA Shop to this day.
Whether you’re looking for a unique gift for someone who values meaningful jewelry or seeking an addition to your personal collection, the Salmon pendant is an excellent choice. The versatile design pairs effortlessly with casual and formal wear, ensuring it is a treasured part of any collection.
