Land and People of the Arctic

Rosendale Library Presents:

“Land and People of the Arctic”
(An Illustrated Presentation)
Joseph Meehan, Expedition Photographer

During the last decade, Joseph Meehan served as expedition and documentary photographer for a groundbreaking study by Dr. Martin Nweeia concerning the extraordinary tusk of the Arctic Narwhal.  For centuries, myths and misconceptions have surrounded the purpose of its unique structure.  Meehan will take us on a visual journey through stunning landscapes of the High Canadian Arctic and Greenland, sharing candid portraits of Inuit hunters whose knowledge reflects generations of survival in the north.
