KHOT-LA-CHA Art Gallery & Gift Shop Details
Khot-La-Cha Coast Salish Handicrafts was established in 1969 on the Capilano Indian Reserve in North Vancouver, British Columbia, by Emily Baker who sought to provide an outlet for the carving, bead work, knitting, and sewing talents of her friends. The store name is her husband Chief Simon Baker's traditional name Khot-La-Cha, which means "kind heart" in the Squamish language. The store in now second-generation owned and operated by the Bakers' daughter. One of the main goals of the business is to "express" and keep the "Native culture alive" through the crafts. The handicraft store features items created by some of the finest Aboriginal artists and artisans in British Columbia, and most of the artwork and crafts are made by members of the Squamish Indian Band. Some of the items sold in the store include hand-carved totem poles and plaques, ceremonial masks, Cowichan Indian sweaters, moccasins, and limited-edition prints. Specialties include hand-tanned moose hide crafts, as well as porcupine quill and bone jewellery. In addition, the store also showcases beautiful silver and gold carved jewellery designed by artisans from the Queen Charlotte, Haida, Tlinket and Tahitan tribes.
