About this event

Tupananchiskama: Ancient Andean Cosmovision explores the worldviews of ancient Andean civilizations through nearly 100 works in ceramic, textile, bone, and wood. Collected by former UBC Professor Alan R. Sawyer, some pieces date back more than 2,500 years. The exhibition highlights the Andean philosophy of reciprocity, balance, and the transformation of life and death. Guests can join curator-led tours to gain deeper insights into these sacred ancestral relationships. Admission includes access to all museum galleries and is half-price on Thursday evenings.
