    The Estate of Ted Russell

    “... I think there is merit in just ’being.’ Somehow or other the greatest gift we have is the gift of our own consciousness, and that is worth savouring. Just to be in a place that’s so silent that you can hear the blood going through your arteries and be aware of your own existence, that you are matter that knows it is matter, and that this is the ultimate miracle.” – Christopher Pratt, artist 584 This painting entitled We Filled ‘Em To The Gunnells by Sheila Hollander shows what life possibly may have been like in XXX circa XXX. Fig. 3.4 Artist profiles 585 Artist profile Fig. 1 Angela Andrew Angela Andrew – Tea Doll Designer Innu tea dolls have been created by Nitassinan Innu of Quebec and Labrador for over a hundred years. (The earliest collected examples of tea dolls date back to the 1880s.) But today, Angela Andrew of Sheshatshiu is one of the few craftspeople keeping the tradition alive. She makes as many as 100 tea dolls a year – many of which are sold to art collectors. Angela learned the art of making tea dolls from Maggie Antoine, a woman from her father’s community of Davis Inlet. She learned her sewing skills from her parents, who originally lived a life of hunting and trapping in the bush. Angela played with tea dolls as a child. She explains that when her family travelled across Labrador, following the caribou and other game, everyone in the family helped pack and carry their belongings ‑ even the smallest children. Because of this, older women made dolls for the little girls and stuffed them with as much as a kilogram (two pounds) of loose tea leaves.

This plan has been built on the goals and priorities The Rooms has identified over the past 15 years and has set the strategic priorities for the 2017-20 planning cycle. The 2017-20 Strategic Plan capitalized on the success The Rooms Corporation (the Corporation) has achieved during its first fifteen years – with renewed emphasis to connect emotionally with its visitors, members and the people of Newfoundland and Labrador. Committed to increasing the number of people and program-based experiences, in support of government priorities, The Rooms introduced a new cultural immersion program commencing in Spring 2017. The Corporation developed a range of new programs based on the province’s unique culture incorporating provincial collections to increase engagement with residents and nonresident visitors. The Rooms has augmented its world-class permanent exhibits, as well as its constantly changing array of art exhibitions, with lively and engaging experiences that begin the moment visitors enter the building – thereby delivering deeper, broader, increased public engagement.
