Daniel Weetaluktuk museum
Named for the first Inuit archaeologist in Nunavik, it features contemporary Inuit artwork and over 200 archaeological and historical objects testifying to the origin of the Inuit in Nunavik and their culture. This igloo-shaped museum offers temporary theme exhibitions, educational activities and presentations. The gallery is a replica of the inside of a period igloo. This igloo was built by Inukjuak elders. Reservations are required.
There are no road links between Nunavik and southern Quebec: the Trans-Taiga Road of the Jamésie region ends near the 55th parallel on the Caniapiscau Reservoir, several hundred kilometers south of Kuujjuaq.
