The Native Cultural Arts Museum is a part of Northern Lakes College and is located in Grouard Alberta. The museum was established in 1976 to promote a better understanding and education of Aboriginal arts and designs. Today, the Museum’s collection celebrates various aspects of Aboriginal cultures, with a special focus on Métis peoples and the Woodland Cree of northern Alberta. The Museum’s historical and contemporary collections serve to educate the public by respectfully portraying Aboriginal lifestyles through exhibits of art, music, hunting, regalia, clothing, and more. The Museum's Cultural Educational Programs are sponsored by Northern Lakes College, the Community Council of Education Committee, the Municipal District of Big Lakes, and with the assistance of Alberta Museums Association.
