People in Inuvik have been dancing in Ingamo
Hall since 1965. Back then it was only the
Hudson’s Bay warehouse, a multi-coloured
plywood structure.
The name “Ingamo” is actually a misspelling
of the word “Indemo” a word coined from
the Indian-Eskimo Association – a group
responsible for initiating the idea of a Hall.

In 1974 when the old Hall needed replacing
the idea of a log structure emerged. Over one
thousand logs were floated down the Mackenzie
River from Fort Simpson. The 7,904 square foot
structure was completed in 1979.
Today the Hall is used for Friendship Centre
programming staff, work-shops, meetings,
feasts, craft sales, drum dancing, art shows and
many other activities.
