The Art Gallery of Hamilton is offering free admission for all visitors until Labour Day as part of its “Hamilton Strong” initiative.
The gallery said in a social media post Wednesday morning that the free admission during July and August was made possible by “the generosity of a private donor.”
“Hamilton Strong is about standing in solidarity with our fellow Hamiltonians, who have supported us throughout our 110+ years,” said Shelley Falconer, the president and CEO at the Art Gallery of Hamilton.
Exhibits currently available at the gallery include Helen McNicoll: An Impressionist Journey, Taking Root: Recent Acquisitions, and The Shape of Curiosity.
Visitors can see these exhibits along with the gallery’s permanent collection.
“Hamilton Strong is for everyone – those who are experiencing financial insecurity, those who are swept up in the anxieties of political instability, or those who simply need a safe haven from the
craziness of the world,” Falconer said.
Current members of the art gallery will automatically receive a two-month extension on their membership.
Anyone who had purchased a year-long AGH membership in July or August will get an extra two months at no additional charge.
