This week, Kendra sits down with Whyte Museum curator Christina Cuthbertson and artist Elise Rasmussen to explore the stories, histories, and creative inspirations held within one of Banff’s most cherished cultural institutions. They dive into the museum’s origins, its deep community roots, and Elise’s exhibition An Alpine Trilogy, a reflective, research-driven project that weaves together art, mountaineering history, and the evolving ways we understand the mountains.
