Igloolik elder Madeline Ivalu and media artist Lucy Tulugarjuk work in collaboration with Jenna Amarualik and Jackie Qrunnut in a project showing traditional skills through live broadcastings.
Lucy and Jenna collaborate with NITV Office Manager Jacky Qrunnut, in Igloolik, Nunavut to record long time actress and founder of Arnait Video Productions, Madeline Ivalu.
During these live broadcasts, Madeline shares her traditional knowledge with young people on how to make seal skin mittens.
This project was created to give traditional knowledge to young people from our inuit elders.

3) How To Cut Up Seal Skin Hide, and 4) How To Stitch Seal Skin Mitten Patterns
