On the campus of the University of Maine, the Hudson Museum features a World Cultures exhibit that includes contemporary Inuit art as well as objects collected by the museum’s founder, Richard Emerick. Emerick was an anthropologist who did fieldwork on Baffin Island in 1953-54, and also collected in the Pacific Islands and the American Southwest. Historic film Iglulingmiut: Inuit Hunters In Transition from the Baffin expedition is featured on Hudson Museum’s YouTube channel. Find the Museum within the Collins Center for the Arts.
