The \'Cultures\' (emphasis on the plural) of the Peoples of the Northwest Coast are actually experiencing a resurgence with the new prominent aritsts now participating in traditional dance groups, healing circles, sweat lodges, traditional medicine and wisdom, as well as native/indigenous language proficiency. Artists play an important role in the spearheading of this new wave of revitalization. There are 10 major (distinct) NWC Indigenous Cultural Groups founded on linguistic differences: Haida, Tlingit, Heiltsuk, Nuxalk, Tsimshian, Nisga\'a (formerly known as the Nishga), Salish, Kwakiutl (aka Kwagiulth and now known as the Kwakwaka\'wakw), Nootka (now known as the Nuuchahnulth), and Makah. There are numerous subgroups as well such as the Tsimshian subgroups Gitxsan and Wet\'sewet\'en, and the division between the Interior and Coast Salish. Think of this diversity being akin to the continental experience of Europe. Each cultural group has had a somewhat unique historical development, and often has distinct cultural and ceremonial practices, varying belief systems and origin stories, and artistic expressions (though there is often overlap and many individuals explore cross-cultural integration and investigation). The works of the North (Haida, Tlingit, Tsimshian, Nisga\'a) are often distict from the Midwest (Heiltsuk and Nuxalk), the South (Interior and Coast Salish), and the west (Kwakwaka\'wakw, Nuuchahnulth, and Makah). Here is a list of some galleries specializing in Northwest Coast Native Art (just google the gallery name as each one has an excellent website):Douglas Reynolds Gallery,Spirit Wrestler Gallery, Coastal Peoples Gallery, Stonington Gallery, Steinbrueck Gallery.
