Haida Art - Old Massett

Shop for a stunning array of native arts and crafts showcasing Haida art, gold and silver jewelry, argillite* and wood carvings, button blankets, cedar woven hats and jewelry, prints, tee-shirts and cards in stores in both Masset and Haida villages. Studio visits may be arranged with some local craftsmen for a selection of that special gift. The Maritime Museam in Masset freatures a rotation of local artists throughout the summer.

Wilfred's Wonderland - Masset

Wilfred's carving shed is located in a veritable hobbit-land, with little statues punctuating every turn in the garden, and all window frames, banisters, gable-ends etc. carved out. The carving shed is carpeted with shavings and pungent with the smell of cedar and oil. You can spend time chatting and sniffing and caressing the bowls and spoons, and admiring the various items, all of which are obviously hand-carved and whimsically lopsided and off-centre, adding to their beauty and value. A fairy-tale shopping experience seldom found elsewhere. 

Organic Food

Green Gaia in Masset carries bulk organic foods and produce, and often makes organic soups for lunch. Mennonites sell their produce ( some of it organic) locally in Masset every Friday noon, and in some stores. Dom's organic garden sells produce, goats milk, and eggs on Sangan Drive. Local stores carry some organic foods.

Ongoing Community Events

Are featured in the local paper, including Canada Day and Masset Harbour Day celebrations, as well as various unscheduled native potlatches and fund-raising lunches and dinners, open to the public, at which you can sample traditional Haida fare at bargain prices. 

Fresh fish

Shop for Fresh fish and seafood, available to go, at Seapack in Masset, right behind Masset grocery. Arrangements may be made locally for the smoking, freezing, and packaging and shipment of your catch or your purchase.
