Several art projects arose from fascination with "Kalakala", including a full-length album of solo cello compositions recorded on board the vessel in November 2003, called "Songs from a Parallel Universe". There is an as-yet unreleased film about the "Ghost Dance" that was filmed on "Kalakala". There was also a live concert featuring the Icelandic band "múm", Serena Tideman and Eyvind Kang, on board the "Kalakala". The watercolorist Robert Tandecki painted her among her later days. Artist Cory Ench painted a large mural of "Kalakala" in downtown Port Angeles in 1995.
