Quw'utsun' Cultural and Conference Centre
(Attractions & Activities - Family Friendly)
200 Cowichan Wy, Duncan  V9L 6P4 • 250-746-8119 • 877-746-8119
Distance: ~46.266 km from The Fairmont Empress
        Description: If you're interested in Native American art and culture, you'll definitely want to plan a trip up to Duncan to visit the Quw'utsun' Cultural Centre. On the premises is the Khenipsen Artisan Centre, the largest carving house in the world, where you can watch a totem being carved and even try your hand at creating your own. There are exhibits throughout the six-acre property, and guests are welcome to stroll the grounds. Be sure to visit the Riverwalk Café to sample traditional Native foods, and the gift shop. The Quw'utsun' people knit fabulously beautiful (and warm!) wool sweaters, and this is the perfect place to pick one up.
