A Toronto museum is set to unveil its massive, $15.5 million transformation this fall, following an extensive, two-stage construction process.
The Gardiner Museum, located at 111 Queens Park, was founded in 1984 by George and Helen Gardiner and houses a collection of over 5,000 objects and ceramics.
Over the past year, the museum has been embarking on its largest capital project in over 20 years with a multi-million dollar renovation of its ground floor.
Myre experiments with scale, shape, and texture, and a new palette to communicate her territory, the Canadian Shield," the museum writes.
The Gardiner Museum officially reopens on Thursday, Nov. 6, and will be hosting a free weekend celebration with curator tours, hands-on clay workshops, and live performances on Nov. 8 and 9.
