Honouring Legacy and Leadership: James Hart Receives Polygon First Nations Art Award of Distinction from BC Achievement

Renowned Haida artist, master carver, and Hereditary Chief James Hart is the recipient of the 2024 First Nations Art Award of Distinction. Born into the Eagle Clan in Haida Gwaii in 1952, Hart has dedicated his life to preserving, revitalizing, and innovating Haida art, carving out a legacy that bridges generations and connects cultures. 

James’s artistic journey began under the mentorship of the legendary Bill Reid. It was through this apprenticeship that he honed his mastery in carving, sculpture, and jewellery-making—skills that felt instinctual. “I started carving, it was in my system to do that,” James says. “The tricks that our old ancestors used to pull – it starts coming through your fingertips.” 

Rooted deeply in Haida traditions, James’s work embodies cultural heritage, spirituality, and the natural world. His totem poles, masks, and bronze sculptures are celebrated for their intricate designs and storytelling, blending traditional Haida art with bold contemporary vision. Whether working in silver, gold, or bronze, James’s ability to convey spirit and story through form is unparalleled. 

Among his most recognized works is The Three Watchmen in Ottawa—a 14-foot bronze sculpture that was the tallest of its kind at the time. Today, he creates towering 20-foot bronze pieces.  

Perhaps one of James’s most powerful and emotional works is the Reconciliation Pole: Honouring a Time Before, During, and After Canada’s Indian Residential Schools, raised at the University of British Columbia in 2017. The pole, embedded with over 68,000 copper nails, serves as a tribute to the children who died in residential schools. “Each nail represents a kid that died going to the school; they were murdered, they were starved to death,” James says. When the pole was raised, a powerful moment unfolded. “There’s two eagles come swooping on over the building and then I noticed 12 eagles up there circling that [carved] eagle on the top of that pole, paying homage. It was an amazing moment. 

Beyond his prolific artistic output, James is a formidable advocate for cultural preservation and environmental stewardship. “Haidas are survivors—our art, our past, our history, our lands; we’re connected as part of the earth,” he says. He is now focusing on mentorship and cultural transmission, building a new studio and bringing in teachers to guide and inspire the next generation. “All this knowledge out there—you have to grow into it to understand it so you can create something meaningful.” 

James’s achievements have garnered national recognition. He was awarded the Order of British Columbia in 2003, the Order of Canada in 2023, and honorary doctorates from Simon Fraser University and Emily Carr University of Art + Design. Through his work, James has elevated Haida art on the global stage. 

“I used to whittle as a kid, but not Haida art,” James reflects. “I’d see the odd pieces from the past but it never sunk in, what was behind it all until outsiders started coming in and we were like—our people had an art. Haida art is just the greatest of the greatest out there.” 

James Hart continues to carve more than just wood—he carves pathways of remembrance, resilience, and hope. 

The Polygon Award in First Nations Art is made possible through the generosity of Vancouver-based Polygon Homes. BC Achievement is grateful for its partnership with Polygon and honoured that our collective mission is driving change.

Building Community and Making Connection: Highlights from the Inaugural IBA Alumni Social 

Posted on by bcachievement

On Thursday, March 27, BC Achievement was honoured to host the inaugural Indigenous Business Award (IBA) Alumni Social, a special evening dedicated to recognizing the achievements of Indigenous entrepreneurs and business leaders from across British Columbia. 

Since 2009, more than 225 Indigenous businesses and entrepreneurs have been honoured through the IBA program. The Alumni Social was created to celebrate this growing community, bringing past recipients together to connect, collaborate, and continue building momentum for Indigenous business excellence. 

This year’s theme, “Making Connections,” emphasized the importance of relationships in business and community building. The event provided a unique opportunity for alumni to share experiences, exchange ideas, and strengthen partnerships—all within an environment rooted in mutual respect and shared purpose. 

The program of events featured several notable guests and inspiring moments: 

  • The evening was hosted by Danny Chase, founder of Chase Office Interiors and 2009 IBA Business of the Year recipient. His generous hospitality and ongoing support were deeply appreciated. 
  • A warm welcome was offered by Curtis Thomas, a member of Tsleil-Waututh Nation and 2023 IBA Business of the Year 11+ recipient for Warrior Plumbing. Curtis also serves as an elected council member for his Nation and is an advocate for Indigenous business growth and opportunity. 
  • BC Achievement extends its sincere thanks to TD’s Michelle Green and Adam Hanuman for their generous financial sponsorship, which made the IBA Alumni Social possible and helped foster meaningful connections within the Indigenous business community. 

The Indigenous Business Award program, now in its 17th year, continues to elevate the stories of Indigenous businesses in British Columbia. By showcasing their achievements, the program offers models of success for aspiring entrepreneurs and provides a space where business opportunities are identified, partnerships are formed, and community connections are strengthened. 

BC Achievement extends sincere thanks to every IBA alumni member who joined us for this memorable evening. 

As a non-profit organization, BC Achievement is committed to elevating excellence and inspiring achievement across the province.

In the face of an ongoing tariff war, British Columbia’s small businesses, artisans, and entrepreneurs are feeling the pressure. By choosing to support BC-based businesses, we foster strong communities and celebrate the incredible talent and innovation within our province. Here are some outstanding local businesses and individuals making a difference, each of whom is a recipient of a BC Achievement’s award: 

Travel Local: Ahous Adventures 

When planning your next getaway, consider an adventure close to home. Ahous Adventures offers immersive travel experiences on the breathtaking west coast of Vancouver Island. Rooted in Indigenous culture, their tours provide a deep connection to the land and waters of the Ahousaht First Nation while supporting sustainable tourism in BC.

For those seeking handmade, one-of-a-kind jewelry, Meghan Weeks is the creative force behind MDW Jewelry. Blending woodworking, silversmithing, and Cree traditions, her pieces carry a sense of tactility, humour, and cultural storytelling. By purchasing from local artisans like Meghan, we help preserve craftsmanship and Indigenous art. 

Educate Local: Len Pierre Consulting 

Education is a powerful tool for change, and Len Pierre Consulting (LPC) leads the way in Indigenous cultural consultation and training. Through workshops on reconciliation, decolonization, and youth empowerment, Len and his team are creating lasting impacts in BC communities. Supporting local educational initiatives fosters a more inclusive and knowledgeable society. 

Celebrate Local: Marcus Mosely Ensemble 

Music has the power to bring people together, and Marcus Mosely has spent decades doing just that. As the Artistic Director of the Marcus Mosely Ensemble, he brings soulful gospel performances to audiences across BC. Choosing to attend local performances and concerts helps sustain our province’s vibrant arts and culture scene. 

Support Local: Connally Goods 

Connally McDougall is redefining fashion by prioritizing sustainability and social justice through Connally Goods. With a commitment to dismantling systemic barriers, her clothing line is a testament to ethical and inclusive design. Shopping from local designers like Connally keeps our fashion industry innovative and fair. 

Buy Local: Robin DuPont & Pam Baker 

Artisans like Robin DuPont and Pam Baker are shaping the future of Canadian art and design. Robin’s contemporary ceramics push the boundaries of form and function, while Pam Baker’s West Coast fashion designs incorporate her rich Indigenous heritage. Choosing to buy local art and fashion supports both cultural preservation and creative expression.

The Indigenous Business Award Program 

Posted on by bcachievement

Since its inception in 2009, the Indigenous Business Award (IBA) program serves as a powerful platform celebrating the achievements of Indigenous entrepreneurs across British Columbia. Now in its 17th year, the IBA has expanded its reach, showcasing the innovation and determination of over 236 Indigenous businesses. This growing network of entrepreneurs is helping to pave the way for others, demonstrating the strength and potential of Indigenous-led businesses. 

A key to the program’s success is its ability to highlight the diversity and excellence of Indigenous businesses across various sectors, from creative industries to resource-based enterprises. Through films and stories captured in an online archive, the IBA brings the journeys of its awardees to life, allowing the public to celebrate their hard work, dedication, and cultural pride. These stories are not only a testament to individual and community achievement but also serve as inspiration for future generations of Indigenous entrepreneurs. 

At BC Achievement, we believe that recognition is just the beginning for our awardees. The IBA program continues to amplify their stories, inspiring young Indigenous business leaders to pursue their entrepreneurial dreams and carry forward their cultural traditions. This ongoing support is critical in sparking new opportunities and creating a community among Indigenous entrepreneurs. 

None of this would be possible without the generous support of our sponsors. A special spotlight this week is on Enbridge, which has been an annual sponsor of the IBA program since 2017. Enbridge’s continued partnership has been vital to the program’s success, ensuring that Indigenous businesses receive the exposure and recognition they deserve. Their continued support helps amplify the achievements of these businesses and contributes to their growth and success. 

Enbridge’s sponsorship goes beyond financial support—as it underpins the program’s goal to foster meaningful relationships and opportunities for shared prosperity. Their involvement with the IBA supports BC Achievement’s commitment to empowering Indigenous business owners and strengthening communities for future generations. We are deeply grateful for Enbridge’s partnership, which plays a crucial role in helping us create a more inclusive and equitable future for Indigenous entrepreneurs. 

With the continued support of sponsors like Enbridge, the IBA program will remain a vibrant community of like-minded individuals and organizations. We are confident that the program will continue to thrive and inspire future generations of Indigenous business leaders. Explore the online archive to learn more about the incredible journeys of IBA awardees and be reminded of the power of determination and community.

Robin DuPont: Pushing the Boundaries of Contemporary Ceramics 

Posted on by bcachievement

Robin DuPont is a frontrunner in contemporary ceramics in North America. With over two decades of experience, he has built a reputation for his innovative atmospherically fired ceramics that push the boundaries of form and surface. A recipient of the 2024 Sam Carter Award in Applied Art + Design, Robin blends craftsmanship with experimentation, embracing the unpredictable beauty of fire to create work that is as functional as it is mesmerizing. 

A Journey Shaped by Clay 

Robin’s artistic path has taken him across Canada and beyond. He’s studied, taught, and fine-tuned his craft at Alberta College of Art + Design, the Australian National University, and Utah State University. Along the way, he’s absorbed influences and techniques that make his work stand out. No matter where he’s been, his passion for ceramics has always been rooted in curiosity and an appreciation for the unexpected. 

Atmospheric Firing 

If you know Robin, you know he thrives on atmospheric firing. Whether it’s wood, soda, or salt firing, each method leaves its mark—literally. Fire, ash, and vapours interact with clay in ways no artist can completely control, making every piece a unique creation. That’s the magic of Robin’s work—no two pieces are ever the same. His pots, mugs, and vessels capture the raw, organic beauty of the process, and that’s what makes them so special. As Robin himself says, “There’s an authenticity in the work that comes from the process—it’s a collaboration between me, the materials, and the fire.” 

Beyond the Studio 

In addition to his artwork and extensive research in ceramics, Robin is a dedicated educator and mentor, teaching at numerous institutions including Emily Carr University of Art + Design and the Kootenay School of the Arts, shaping the next generation of ceramicists. His commitment to education and community engagement was further recognized when he was named Nelson’s cultural ambassador. More recently, he brought his knowledge and passion for pottery to a wider audience as the pottery expert in CBC’s Great Canadian Pottery Throwdown. 

Upon receiving the Sam Carter Award in Applied Art + Design last fall, Robin acknowledged the significance of recognition in the arts, stating, “The value of this award is not so much a personal thing although I’m so grateful and so honoured…but it’s more important for society and for the public to realize that we value culture, that we value people doing unconventional things.”  

The 2026 Sam Carter Award in Applied Art + Design program is open for nominations at bcachievement.com – nominate and support a remarkable artist in your community.

Celebrating Excellence: The Impact of BC Achievement Award Recipients

Posted on by bcachievement

British Columbia is home to extraordinary individuals whose dedication, innovation, and leadership shape our communities and inspire future generations. At BC Achievement, our mission is to honour those who make a lasting impact, whether through business, Indigenous art, community service, or reconciliation initiatives. These remarkable individuals and organizations are the heartbeat of our province, and their stories deserve to be shared and celebrated. 

Recognizing the Changemakers 

Each year, BC Achievement Foundation recognizes exceptional people who go above and beyond to strengthen the cultural and social fabric of our province. From Indigenous artists preserving their heritage through breathtaking works to entrepreneurs driving sustainable economic growth, our awardees exemplify the power of passion and perseverance. 

Take, for instance, the inspiring work of past award recipients like carver and cultural leader Dempsey Bob, whose contributions to Northwest Coast art have elevated Indigenous artistry on the global stage. Or the many community leaders who, through grassroots efforts, have uplifted marginalized voices and fostered inclusivity in their regions. Their commitment reminds us that true leadership is measured by impact, not titles. 

Why Recognition Matters 

Acknowledging and celebrating excellence is more than just an act of appreciation; it fuels progress. When we shine a light on those making a difference, we empower others to follow in their footsteps. Recognition provides encouragement, strengthens networks, and fosters collaboration. More importantly, it ensures that future generations have role models who embody the values of resilience, creativity, and service.

Saluting Our Sponsors: Teck Resources’ Impact on BC Achievement: Indigenous Business and the BC Reconciliation award programs 

Posted on by bcachievement

At BC Achievement, we’re in the business of telling stories, lifting people up and shining a light on those who go above and beyond in their communities. We believe that through storytelling, we can inspire others to follow in the footsteps of remarkable British Columbians and make a lasting and continuous impact. The stories we share honour individual excellence while showcasing the communities and places that shape these exceptional individuals. Our goal is to spark a movement that ignites positive change and carves out a path forward for others to follow. 

But we can’t do this alone. We are incredibly grateful to the sponsors who make this mission possible, who help us bring these stories of excellence into the spotlight, and who support the development of programs that recognize the outstanding work of British Columbians. 

The Power of Partnership: Teck’s Ongoing Commitment 

A significant sponsor in our journey has been Teck Resources (Teck), whose consistent support has been invaluable. Since 2010, Teck has been a proud sponsor of the Indigenous Business Award program, and over the last 15 years, it has become an integral part of our sponsorship family.  

In 2024, Teck took this partnership to new heights by becoming the inaugural sponsor of the BC Reconciliation Award program. 

Teck’s presentation sponsor involvement played a key role in the success of the 2024 BC Reconciliation Award ceremony, held in late January in partnership with the Office of the Lieutenant Governor of BC. It was a truly inspired evening at Government House where the incredible work of the recipients was celebrated, lauded, and amplified. The support allowed the stories of the recipients to be shared far and wide through live video streaming, captured in the ceremony and made accessible throughout the province on BC Achievement’s website and YouTube channel. It’s a lasting tribute to those who inspire change and is part of the foundation’s online library archive (click here to watch!). 

The recipients of the BC Reconciliation Award are catalysts for broader transformation. Their work has a ripple effect, reaching and impacting countless lives across our province. They represent the power of community, the strength of the people and places that make BC remarkable. 

Looking Ahead: A Continued Partnership for Change 

At BC Achievement, we are proud of our long-standing relationship with Teck, and we salute its ongoing support in helping us honour the exceptional individuals who make our province proud. Together, we are amplifying voices, telling stories, and inspiring others to follow in the footsteps of those who are shaping the future of BC. 

As we look ahead, we are excited about the continued partnership with Teck and other like-minded organizations that share our vision. It’s a relationship built on trust, shared values, and a mutual commitment to creating positive change. Together, we’re celebrating excellence—and we’re helping to pave the way for others to follow through these incredible stories of achievement. 

Thank you, Teck, for your continuing support. Here’s to the next chapter in our remarkable journey.

Throughout history, Black British Columbians have demonstrated leadership and innovation across various sectors, leaving an indelible mark on the province.

His work brings people together through music, fostering connection and cultural appreciation across generations. 

The impact of Black leadership is also recognized through Lolly Bennett, a passionate advocate for Indigenous and Black communities and a 2018 BC Achievement Community Award recipient.

Through the awards and recognition programs, BC Achievement shines a spotlight on individuals and organizations that are driving positive change and fostering reconciliation, diversity, and inclusion. 

As we celebrate Black History Month, we acknowledge the importance of continued efforts to highlight and support Black artists, business owners, educators, and community advocates who contribute to British Columbia’s diverse and dynamic society.

Celebrating the 2024 BC Reconciliation Award Recipients 

Posted on by bcachievement

Photo: Recipients and Selection Committee members of the 2024 BC Reconciliation Award

The 2024 BC Reconciliation Award ceremony, held at Government House in Victoria on January 23, 2025, was marked by a respectful and traditional presentation. 

The award program honoured four outstanding individuals and two remarkable organizations whose dedication to reconciliation shines through their work. These recipients embody the values of truth, integrity, respect, and collaboration, making meaningful contributions to fostering understanding, addressing historical injustices, and building strong partnerships between Indigenous and non-Indigenous communities across British Columbia. 

Individual Recipients 

  • Sdahl Ḵ’awaas, Lucy Bell (Old Massett) 
  • Corporal (Retired) Chris Gosselin, M.O.M. (West Kelowna) 
  • Gloria Morgan (Enderby) 
  • Phyllis Webstad (Williams Lake) 

Organization Recipients 

  • Qwelmínte Secwépemc (Kamloops) 
  • Usma Nuu-chah-nulth Family and Child Services, Nuu-chah-nulth Tribal Council (Port Alberni) 

The 2024 award recipients serve as inspiring examples of what is possible when individuals and organizations commit to reconciliation in meaningful ways. Their efforts honour the past and help create a more inclusive and just future for all British Columbians. 

The British Columbia Reconciliation Award draws inspiration from the work of Steven Point [Xwĕ lī qwĕl tĕl], the 28th lieutenant governor of British Columbia and a founder of the award. His hand-carved red cedar canoe, Shxwtitostel, currently on display at the B.C. Parliament Buildings, was created as a symbol of reconciliation, with the understanding that “we are all in the same canoe” and must “paddle together” to move forward. 

In honour of this legacy, the 2024 recipients received a print of a canoe paddle designed by Tsm’syen/Nisga’a artist Shawna Kiesman to commemorate their award. Shawna is the Crabtree McLennan Emerging Artist recipient of the Polygon Award in First Nations Art. The paddle designed by Shawna was installed alongside previous BC Reconciliation Award paddles at Government House on November 5, 2024. 

Reconciliation is an ongoing journey—one that requires listening, learning, and action. By celebrating these achievements, we recognize the power of truth and the enduring strength of Indigenous communities in shaping a more united and respectful society for all British Columbians. 

2024 recipient Phyllis Webstad, speaking for all the awardees, shared her truth in telling her residential school experience along with her drive to tell her story through the Orange Shirt Day initiative. Following Phyllis’ moving remarks, T’esóts’en, Patrick Kelly, who served as Director of Ceremonies, announced that in recognition of Phyllis’ tenacity, courage and loving nature – in sharing her story of survival and incredible strength – the BC Reconciliation Award program will have a new category moving forward:  

The Phyllis Webstad Emerging Leader in Reconciliation.

As we look to the future and the challenges that lie ahead, it is more important than ever to recognize the achievements of youth in our province: “in our children, in our young people, we have hope. They are the ones who will lead us forward, and we need to support and encourage them every step of the way”.  

BC Achievement holds immense gratitude for Her Honour, Janet Austin and how she has worked closely with the Foundation to advance reconciliation in BC. She is a champion for the award programs BC Achievement administers and made reconciliation one of her mandates during her tenure. We look forward to partnering with the 31st Lieutenant Governor, the Honourable Wendy Cocchia and her office on the continuation of the reconciliation journey. 

Nominate someone or an organization worthy of the BC Reconciliation Award before the deadline of February 15, 2025 at bcachievement.com.
