A series of banners featuring the artwork of six Yukon women will soon hang in various locations around the territory. The banners, intended to welcome visitors to the territory, were unveiled at a Yukon government event Monday. Esther Bordet says her piece is a tribute to all the women who paved the way for her generation. In addition to Bordet, the banners feature the artwork of Emma Barr, Amber Church, Maegan Garrett, Violet Gatensby and Sharon Vittrekwa. The banners will be hung across Whitehorse later this week and eventually at visitor attractions and along roadways across the territory.
