If you have spent any amount of time in the lobby of the AGGV over the past four months chances are you heard someone say, “I’m here to see Maud.” “Maud” of course is referring to Maud Lewis. Hundreds of visitors have come to the gallery to experience the amazing work of Nova Scotia artist Maud Lewis since it opened in June 2022. From her charming oxen to her engaging seascapes, the paintings of Maud Lewis have filled our galleries with an energy that was wonderful to see.

Through the exhibition Reverberations, artists, makers and creators were invited to present new or existing work alongside works from the AGGV’s permanent collection – selecting from over 22,800 objects.

You may have noticed something different in the Gallery Shop in the last couple of months – new jewelry and clothing! In collaboration with the AGGV’s Adorned exhibition, we have introduced a number of new local clothing, accessory and jewelry designers into the shop.

This past Disability Pride Month, Tangled Art + Disability and AGGV collaborated on an accessibility audit of the AGGV’s digital offerings. This sparked some great conversations about Disability Arts and accessibility, leading us to think about some of the terms we use often in disability culture.
