@macleansmag published a few of my photos of @qaggiq2021 in this month's issue with a great story by Marie-Danielle Smith. Thanks to @lizthesullivan for giving all of Canada the chance to learn about this great project.

Today, in the Globe and Mail! (Ottawa, Manitoba, and Saskatchewan editions only.) The drum dancing group Huqqullaaqattigiit from Cambridge Bay, Nunavut, performs in front of a 700 sq. ft. qaggiq - a giant iglu - built by Polar Outfitting under the guidance of master builders Solomon Awa and Jacoposie Tiglik. The Qaggiq 2021 festival was hosted by Qaggiavuut, an organization intent on building a permanent venue for performing arts in Nunavut. Performing March 20 are, from left, Julia Ogina, Noah Kudlak, Malachai Angulalik, Sarah Jancke, Jerry Puglik, and Sam Anayoak. #inuit #iqaluit #nunavut

Looks like @qaggiq2021 is ready for people to step inside the giant iglu at 1 p.m. The seams are sealed with ice and it sure is solid (and big!). @awasolomon is the master builder putting the finishing touches on the peak. Photos by @caseylessard

Inuit culture has a global appeal, and yet Canada’s Inuit territory remains the only Canadian capital without a performing arts centre. No more (for a short time anyway). A team of experts and brave souls built Qaggiqvuut a grand temporary qaggiq at Iqaluit Kuunga, and the organization is hosting a festival this weekend to show what good would come of a year-round qaggiq.
