Art

This art gallery contains over 100 paintings and sculptures by the renowned Peggy’s Cove artist William deGarthe. The gallery displays 65 of his paintings, which were all donated by his wife P.Agnes deGarthe, in 1993.

Many of his pieces follow William’s progression as a marine artist and sculptor. You may learn about the tools that deGarthe used to cut through the granite inside the gallery.

If you are interested in art and museums, this is a local gem here.
