Mission-Oyama House Post Project
Mission - Oyama "Joined together in Spirit"
In 1996 Oyama became Mission's
Sister City.
The Mission House Post and Oyama
House Post were carved by four
Aboriginal Artists.
While in Oyama, to carve the Oyama
House Post, original AINU carvers of
Japan taught their traditional carving
techniques to our carvers.
Both the Mission House Post and the
Oyama House Post were created
from one log donated from the
Municipal Tree Farm.
The Mission House Post was
presented during the Fraser Valley
Bald Eagle Festival in November,
and resides at the Chamber of
Commerce grounds.
