Here is myself lighting a Qulliq.

I was taught by an elder that a Qulliq is used for drying clothing. A Qulliq is used for cooking food, and it is used for heat and light.

This is Mayuriaq Quvianaqtuliaq of Kinngait, who has been lighting Qulliq’s for many years for ceremonies and meetings and gathering of a community as an open act, and always selected to light Qulliq’s when cruise ships come for a visit.

She is a respected elder who has grew up traditionally and is living in the modern world, carrying and giving Inuit Qaujimajatuqangit knowledge to children.

Here is Annie lighting a qulliq, we still use qulliq to this day. And where I’m from we use qulliq when there is a highschool graduation. They invite an elder to light up the qulliq, graduates walk in with parents and help them light a candle from the qulliq.

Annie Petallausie came and talked all about a Qulliq.

She told us the essentials of Qulliq such as Maniq, Kaguuraq Qauraq, Sivuti and Tarkut. She also said they had a rack for drying mitts and Kamiks. It was used as warmth and that they didn’t feel cold at night.
