The ferry terminal at Quathiaski Cove on Quadra Island is now home to three new Welcome Poles.
The seaward-facing poles were carved by Bradley Assu of We Wai Kai Nation and Quadra resident Ted McKellar, who is Coast Salish.
Assu is a mate on the Powell River Queen, the ferry that travels between Campbell River and Quadra Island.
The Nuyumbalees Cultural Centre held a blessing ceremony on Saturday for the new carvings, which were installed in May with support from BC Ferries.
