Description:
- Opened in 1886, the Zwicker Gallery is Canada's oldest gallery and is situated near the Spring Garden Road shopping district on Canada's East coast. The gallery features contemporary art, art from the 20th century and earlier, folk art, sculptures and crafts. Maps and engravings have also been recently added to the list of displays. A visit to the gallery is a must for history and art lovers. Not only do you get to see the interesting preserved maps from the 1700's but also vibrant and colorful classical folk art. Both an educating and enjoyable experience for those who want to see a glimpse of Nova Scotia's growth as an art state. The gallery can be visited by appointment only, so call ahead before making a trip.
