Official opening of art exhibit at Fanningbank

Lieutenant Governor's Office

Her Honour, the Honourable Barbara A. Hagerman, Lieutenant Governor of Prince Edward Island, officially opened the 2011 summer exhibition, titled “Visual Arts by Newcomers to Prince Edward Island” at a celebration held today. This project was curated by Monique Lafontaine, Adjunct Curator with the Confederation Centre of the Arts, and a member of the Government House Committee.

“This is the fifth summer an exhibit has been held at Fanningbank,” said Her Honour. “It represents the artistic talent of our new Island residents who wish to make a new life for themselves and their families on Prince Edward Island. It is also another reason for people to visit Government House which is open to the public Monday to Friday, 10 a.m. - 4 p.m., July 6 - August 31.” The exhibition features painting, jewellery and glass work.
