Bio/Historical Note: Artist workshops have been held at Emma Lake, Saskatchewan, since 1935. Augustus F. (Gus) Kenderdine, an artist trained at the Academie Julian in Paris and an instructor in the fledgling Department of Art at the University of Saskatchewan, established a summer art camp on an eleven-acre boreal forest peninsula on the shores of Emma Lake. In the early 1930s Kenderdine had purchased land at Murray Point on Emma Lake, and convinced Walter C. Murray, first president of the University of Saskatchewan, that a summer art camp could perform a vital role in the offerings of the department. In 1936 the Murray Point Art School at Emma Lake was officially incorporated as a summer school program. The school was also known as the art colony. Participants were teachers and artists who came from all over the province to learn how to teach art in Saskatchewan schools. After Kenderdine's death in 1947, a new generation of Saskatchewan artists came of age or moved into the province, including Kenneth Lochhead, Arthur McKay, Ronald Bloore, Ted Godwin, and Douglas Morton, popularly referred to as the Regina Five. In 1955 Lochhead, director of the Regina College School of Art, proposed a two-week workshop at Emma Lake to follow the Murray Point Art School classes. The workshop concept, based on modernist art, was established to keep Prairie artists in touch with art centers such as New York and Toronto. The internationally renowned Emma Lake Artists' Workshops became an established annual event and continued virtually unchanged until the last workshop was held in 1995. Since the mid-1960s the site has also been a provincial research area under the auspices of the U of S Department of Biology for biologists and other researchers. It is the most northerly field station in Saskatchewan and one of the few sites in Canada that specifically examines the boreal forest. It was declared as a game preserve in 1962. In 1989 the site was officially designated as Emma Lake Kenderdine Campus in recognition of Gus Kenderdine. The campus closed in 2012. In 2020 the university relocated nearly two dozen cabins at the site to Montreal Lake Cree Nation to provide additional housing during the COVID-19 pandemic.
This fonds contains Sorokin's: manuscripts, published works, correspondence, clippings, Harvard University Administrative files, and administrative files of the Research Centre for Creative Alturism. Also included are a few photographs, a microfilm and cassette tapes, as well as works by others about Sorokin and his theories. Some of the material about Sorokin was added after his death.

Historical Educational Charts Collection
A collection of charts and diagrams that would have likely been used in a classroom setting. Many of them are hand painted, with some being commercially created. The topics include botany, agriculture, zoology, and general science.
This collection primarily reflects Zepp’s interest in Inuit art and artists. It includes interviews with artists, images taken over the course of several years of the northern landscape, community and individuals. Importantly, Zepp and Varga spent time at fishing and hunting camps or in the homes of artists, and the resulting material reflects that friendship and intimate relationship. Material created or acquired during Zepp’s career as a curator is also evident, including a significant photo resource of Inuit art from major collections. The reference library is an uniquely complete set of articles and major works relating to Inuit art in Canada. Additionally, the collection includes material relating to a number of other artists, predominantly from Saskatchewan, whose work Zepp admired (in many instances, Zepp organized the first major exhibition of their work).

Summer School for Teachers - University of Saskatchewan - Group Photo
Two women holding a butterfly collection mounted in a box, with two men looking on. Photos of flowers in background; possibly taken in Biology Building.
Bio/Historical Note: The University Summer School emerged in 1914; for the first three years (1914-1917), the Department of Education assumed responsibility for the direction and support of the school. Only school teachers took the courses; these were designed to improve instruction in agriculture, household science, nature study, art, and elementary science. In 1917, at the request of the Department, the University took over management of the school, and classes were offered leading to a degree. Classes were given in English, Latin, Chemistry, Physics, and Field Husbandry. From 1919 to 1937, George H. Ling was Director; during his tenure it grew into one of the largest and best known university summer schools in Canada.
