Our Vision
The Copper Sun Gallery was established in 2015 to provide
a venue for Nuxalk artists to sell & receive fair prices for their work.
Located in Nuxalkulmc on the Central Coast in beautiful Bella Coola,
Copper Sun Gallery carries locally-made, handcrafted Nuxalk products.
Nuxalkmc have a distinctive style & our work features particular designs that
are unique to Nuxalkulmc. In particular, the use of a vibrant blue has long
been an identifying hallmark of Nuxalk, the “Bella Coola Blue.”
Copper Sun is a subsidiarity of Nunumus Management Ltd.

Nuhawhawta
Nuhawhawta, also known as "Sheldon Tallio," has been offering guided experiences
throughout Nuxalkulmc and our sacred petroglyphs for many years.
Visitors are often left speechless & there is good reason for it.
Nuhawhawta has a powerful spiritual presence & the ability to weave together beliefs, spirituality & cultures.
His breadth of cultural knowledge is only surpassed by his innate ability
to connect with people: he never gives the same experience twice.
