Art Gallery of Anne Gallant

Courtesy of: Anne Gallant

The Art Gallery of Anne Gallant is located at 59 Broadway Street, on the main road (Route 20) across the train station parking lot. Anne Gallant is a full time artist and businesswoman. After her years traveling and working in the Third World, Anne returned to Canada to pursue her art career. In 2002, she decided to quit working and start her own business. In January 2007, Anne bought the building in Kensington, which now houses her gallery and studio. Her work is now being sold across the Maritimes, and clients from across Canada and the US have commissioned Anne for original paintings.

In her new gallery, there is a display of beautiful painting reflecting the beauty of the east coast and Prince Edward Island. Also available at the gallery are prints on canvas, prints on paper, greeting cards and note cards. Throughout the year, Anne offers art classes. Every summer, there is a full program of art classes for adults and children. You can even book a class for a group of family and friends for a great rainy day activity.

In the upcoming summer, be sure to drop by Anne's gallery to see her new paintings and prints.
