      Mooniingwanekaaning refers to the ancestral homeland of Lake Superior Anishinaabe and translates as "The Home of the Golden Breasted Woodpecker." The bird inspired the shape and yellow color of this plush decor gift. The blue references Lake Superior, and the elongated green shape is the outline of the island from a bird's-eye view. Slightly bottom-weighted so it can sit upright on a mantle or bookshelf.

      The Madeline Island Museum celebrates all of the cultures who have called the island home. The Ojibwe and other tribes made their home on Madeline Island, the largest of the Apostle Islands (Lake Superior), for hundreds of years before European contact. The island was also one of the earliest areas of European exploration and settlement in the interior of North America, serving as a post for the fur trade, commercial fishing, and missionary activities.  

      Bella and Leo Capser opened the Madeline Island Museum in 1958, and their original collection of artifacts documenting the island’s history can still be seen today. Modern expansions have added additional exhibit and gallery space.
