Judith Fairbrother

Brilliant informative clean and interesting museum. Could spend couple of hours here easily no admission donations only

(Translated) I am using the goods I bought here, even now. The original lip is gone now, painting this lip will remind you of the life with the yellow knife. I am looking forward to the day when I can go again. (Original) こちらで買った品物、今でも大切に使っています。オリジナルリップがもう無くなる、、、このリップを塗るとイエローナイフでの生活が思い出されます。また行ける日を楽しみにしています。

Nathan Taylor

Lots of options for young kids and babies, was a bit disappointed about the lack of local products. Everything is made in china or costs hundreds of dollars.

(Translated) The biggest place to buy souvenirs in the Old Town. The price is a bit expensive. Most souvenir shops in Yellowknife do not have many overlapping items. Please refer to the advantages, please buy without waste. (The same thing does not differ much in price.) (Original) 올드타운에서 기념품을 살 수 있는 가장 큰 장소. 가격은 약간 비싼편입니다. 옐로우나이프 내의 대부분의 기념품점은 서로 중복되는 물건이 많이 없습니다. 이점 참고하셔서 헛걸음 없이 구입하세요.(같은 물건도 가격차이가 많이 나지 않습니다.)

Love their clothing and unique arts n crafts! The lady at the cashier stayed open an extra 5 minutes so i could pick some sweaters out for my family back home, i really appreciated that.

Matthew West

Expensive but a good selection of souvenirs

Emily CPY

It's neat to look at, and the staff are lovely. There are a lot of really impressive local artists' works available here that are beautiful (and expensive). It's certainly worth stopping by to take a look at. There's also a lot of generic Canadian souvenir stuff that you could get anywhere, some of which is made in China anyway.

Jeffrey Hsiao

Friendly and lovely shopkeeper, candid reply to questions concerning souvenirs in the shop!

Simon Fripp

Nice place and friendly staff

James Chartrand

Awesome stuff for everyone. Must see.

We met Derrald Taylor, Inuvialuit sculptor, there in his studio, shared with a couple of other artists. What a warm person with amazing talent! We wish you the very best, Derrald!

Had some great art, antiques and figurines but I'm not feeling anything from there. Gunna have to look a bit closer for something that catches my eye.

(Translated) Souvenir shop. You can buy things like yellow knives and crafts. Japanese seem to visit often, and there are Japanese guidance and how to use JCB card. (Original) お土産物屋さん。イエローナイフっぽいものや工芸品を買うことができる。日本人がよく訪れるようで、日本語の案内があったり、なんとJCBカードが使えたりする。

Perfect place to find a little Yellowknife souvenir. From traditional carvings, jewellery or kids garments you will find a little something to bring back home.

Colin Climie

Wide selection.

Just got back from my unfortunate visit here. I had picked out three souvenirs and took them to cash there an older grey haired woman was cutting cardboard to fit some prints in. I waited patiently for a time thinking she will tell me it’ll be a minute or anything really. But nothing I waited a significant time...nothing. She totally ignored me. I was almost going to ask if I was invisible, but just left without any interaction from her. I did notice when we walked in, she said nothing, but after two men came in, it was hello where are you from, etc. This sort of thing is nasty, I’m from PEI and no customer would get this sort of service at home! I was really upset. My advice give this place a miss....don’t reward bad and rude behaviour!

Stephan Gabos

Nice art from local artists and many artifacts. Great for browsing and shopping.

Rick Windsor

Some beautiful pieces in here. Plenty of northern art represented here. High quality pieces at reasonable prices (we have shopped around and lived in several northern communities), they don't seem cheap when looking at the pricetag but these ARE market prices. We really liked the variety available and will definitely shop here again when we are in Yellowknife.

James Kerr

Awesome stuff for sale and friendly staff

Stenvne Thomas

Lovely items, but rhetoric sculpted soapstone crafts were a bit on the expensive side.. loved them though.

Vanitha Krishnamurthy

wonderful art and collectibles. Highly recommend for the discriminating tourist.

Hedia B

Great place to buy all kinds of gifts for yourself and others. Great selection of arts, crafts, cards, jewelry... a bit pricey. Staff are wonderful and very friendly.

陳宥樺

Have many textured Aboriginal handmade products and many kinds of souvenir.

Nice place

Mary Shaw

Exquisite indigenous art. A lovely place to bring home a little bit of the North .

AME

A gift shop selling fine stuff.

Mike Ashton

Helpful staff, nice selection but a bit pricey. Personally I found all the stores selling gifts in this area virtually mirror images of one another. Seen one seen them all so try here first.

Cindy Gao Gao

It is a great to buy souvenirs.

Great place to shop for northern tourist items

A varied collection of souvenirs, handcrafted items and locally made goods. Everything from jewelery, art, carvings, baskets, teas, beauty supplies and probably a million more things I'm forgetting.

Love this little place, but it's actually a shop and not an art gallery. Still, lots of cool things to see.

Marlayna Morgan

Nice place, pretty decent prices. Not much is handmade by locals so you really don't get the cultural aspect of your trip. But they had a great selection of clothing

Dallas woodworth

A must see in Yellowknife. Something for everyone. Amazing Inuit sculptures and crafts. I stop here every time I am in Yellowknife.

Corey Dressler

Need to be an oil tycoon to afford to shop there.

Really bad! They selling over priced! More expensive than other gift stores 30%!! I bought a polar bear license plate $29.99, but in downtown other stores selling $19.99. I back to ask refund in 10 minutes, they said no!!! I told them my refund reason, they answered they know they over priced, that's why they don't do refunds, exchanges only. That's ridiculous!!!

Veronica Miller

Very nice and friendly staff. Great selection for any tourist.

Shawn

Great staff

Lois Kroeger

This place has anything a tourist or even a local would like to pick up. I have purchased fossilized mammoth tusk made up into tie tacks and earrings, and they are lovely. They also have furs, garments made by local artisans, carvings made in bone, soap stone and other materials, and so much more. You can spend a few hours looking at all they have and even if you leave the store empty handed, you are pleasantly greeted.

Vera Lindsay

Enjoyed viewing the arts and crafts of the area.

Neil Longland

Wonderful selection of merchandise. Spent several hours browsing and buying.

(Translated) It is a souvenir shop. There was a lady clerk who looked good. There are a lot of souvenirs such as Aurora goods, yellow bears and reindeer that look like a yellow knife. There are also paintings and photographs. I bought a photo of the aurora, but a clerk told me that it was a photographer from Yellowknife who took this shajin. (Original) お土産屋さんです。品の良さそうなおばさんの店員さんがいました。オーロラグッズ、白熊やトナカイなどイエローナイフっぽいお土産が沢山あります。絵画や写真などもあります。私はオーロラの写真を購入したのですが、店員さんからこのシャジンを撮ったのはイエローナイフ出身の写真家だと教えてもらいました。

Oleg Rubel

Best place to shop for local souvenirs.

Marc Gratton

A very interesting place full of amazing unique items one-of-a-kind to the north

KID K

Very friendly and good prices

Patricia Monteith

Excellent customer service. I was researching an ad of a painting and there was only the name of the gallery and no artist signature. Midnight Sun took the time to send me info on the artist, a short bio and a picture of the inside of the shop showing the artists' work. Love the art tile and they packaged it very carefully to ensure it's safe arrival to me. Thank you Midnight Sun for an enjoyable conclusion to my mystery art.

(Translated) A good point to see and buy souvenirs in the small town of Yellowknife. The people are nice, you can buy from sweaters, rates, souvenirs of all kinds. (Original) Un buen punto para ver y comprar recuerdos en la pequena ciudad de Yellowknife. La gente es agradable, se puede comprar desde playereas sweters, tasa, recuerdos de todo tipo.

(Translated) There's no place to go in the middle of this place. The doors are open on Sundays, so you can spend your free weekends. It's enough to catch a line because you can get a badge and walk a little. Mainly, the city's development and history are recorded, and animals are recorded and displayed. I don't know if it exists, but a huge skull is majestic. Mammoth ivory is also on display, but at first glance it looks like an old tree. Cafe and restaurant on the second floor? There is a place that looks like this, but it is not open on weekends. Even on weekends, there seems to be a lot of people gathering. But again, it's certainly one of the places to go in the city. (Original) 이 근방에 갈곳이 없는 와중에 그나마 갈만한 장소. 일요일에도 문을 열기때문에 할일없는 주말의 시간을 보낼수있다. 뱃지를 받고 조금 걸어서 이동이 가능하기때문에 동선을 그렇게잡아도 충분하다. 주로 이 도시의 발전이나 역사가 기록되어있고, 동물에 대한것이 기록 및 전시되어있다. 실존 한것인지는 모르겠으나 거대한 두개골이 위엄을 풍긴다. 맘모스의 상아라는것도 전시되어있는데 얼핏보면 단순히 오래된 고목처럼 보인다. 2층에 까페및 식당? 처럼 보이는곳이 있는데 이곳은 주말에는 운용하지 않는다. 주말에도 갈곳없는 사람들이 조금 모이는 모양이다. 그러나 역시, 도시에서 가볼만한 곳중의 하나인건 확실하다.
