I went there looking for Canadian Aboriginal Indian artefacts. I did find a whole bunch in glass cases, but I also found this very large walrus, donated in the 1880's.
It's at http://www.horniman.ac.uk/
A good example of things they do is the sand painting. It was created by visiting Navajo persons in 1966, and as with all sand paintings, it didn't last long.
If you go to the link, you'll also see more about the THOUSANDS of musical nstruments from all over the world (Poland to Mongolia, not much on Canadian when I visited). You can touch some of them, and play them. It's open nearly every day, and it's FREE . . . London SE22, from London Bridge . . .
