BC Fishing Boats — “Nordic Spirit”

We are excited to participate in the 2019 Richmond Maritime Festival on July 27 and 28, in Steveston, BC.

Our exhibit will feature a small sample from our 2018 Nordic Spirit exhibit — stories and images of Nordic immigrants in BC’s fishing industry. People from the Nordic countries brought with them centuries of seafaring experience and tradition, an unbroken lineage from Viking ships to the present. Their contributions to our local fishing and shipbuilding industries have been substantial.
