Tour
You could say Newfoundland and Labrador exists because of cod fish. So many cod that at one time that you could literally dip your bucket over the side of your boat and fill a pail with fish. For over 400 years the salt cod industry was the backbone of life in Newfoundland and Labrador. Generations of fishing men, women and children spent their lives "making fish." Come with us on a tour of two exhibitions, From This Place: Our Lives on Land and Sea and Here, We Made a Home, to learn about the salt cod trade in the province.
It is the final week to visit exhibitions by Kim Morgan, Sheilagh O’Leary and Jenny Yujia Shi.
Join Curator of Contemporary Art Mireille Eagan and Educator Anne Pickard in the art gallery for a conversation about the curatorial process and the role of artists and arts education today.
