It transcends aesthetics. It fearlessly explores who we are, what we believe, and how we live. It expresses the often contradictory tension between what we think and what we feel. It belongs to all of us; it is not the purview of the chosen few, or a dominant culture, or a single school or movement. An art gallery cannot be frozen in time or bound by tradition. Art is a living thing, forever evolving and changing, and an art gallery must constantly adapt if it is to remain relevant and vital. The Art Gallery of Nova Scotia embraces these values and is engaging in a transformation and reinvention of what it means to be a gallery for all people. The Art Gallery of Nova Scotia has set a course that matches the province’s diversity and ambition, in addition to a vision that will transform the gallery experience for Nova Scotians and visitors to the province.

We will engage the audience with the collection in a way that is challenging and thought provoking. It is important for the Gallery to be engaged in social change and be accessible. Our space and our programs will promote meaningful interaction and conversation about important topics like social change, healthcare, mental health, race relations, and more, through the lens of art and experience. We will continue to foster new ways of thinking through collision spaces and studios for interdisciplinary art, as well as in-Gallery technology that deepens the art experience by expanding on its interpretation.

In 1975, the Museum was renamed in the Art Gallery of Nova Scotia Act. Shortly thereafter, the new Art Gallery of Nova Scotia implemented educational programs, started developing its collection, and began looking for a permanent home after years of using small non-Gallery spaces. Edell, Nancy, Walrus Woman, 2002 The Gallery officially opened the doors to its new home in 1988 Oil and graphite on plywood, hooked rug, 155 x 260cm situated in the heart of downtown Halifax. This gave the Gallery a home and permanence in the city and province. A decade later, in 1998, the Gallery grew again when two floors of the neighbouring Provincial Building opened.

  • MURALS Call to Artists Downtown Winter Garden Public Art Mural Pilot Project
    Up To $7000 Up To $3000 Up To $8000 MURALS Call To Artists Downtown Winter Garden Public Art Mural Pilot Project The city of Winter Garden is initiating a pilot public mural program in the historic downtown district to build community pride, build a stronger community identity and activate some key streets by bringing pedestrian activity to streets such as Main, Boyd, Joiner and Tremaine Streets. Historically, murals were used to advertise and draw interest to a street or store. Downtown Winter Garden has had some murals over the years, but currently does not have any murals remaining. The City has asked the Winter Garden Art Association to assist in the call for artists and selection process. The city invites qualified artists to submit proposals for up to three murals to be placed on/or painted on the walls at three locations in the Downtown District. The City has allocated up to $7,000 for Site #1 and $3,000 for Site #2 to be paid to each mural artist. The fee to be paid for Site #3 is to be determined based on the # of sections chosen by the artist, not to exceed $8000. Each mural shall be interactive and encourage creative thought and activity. If the applicant wishes to create a mural of higher value, the applicant must make a case to justify it and demonstrate the ability to secure a portion of the additional funds. The installed mural will become the property of the city of Winter Garden. This initiative will be called #wheregoodthingsgrow and/or #acharmingcitywithajuicypast.

    JONATHAN MUNDEN 20503 W 200th St, Spring Hill, KS 66083 (816) 517-2051 [email protected] www.MundensArt.com @MUNDEN1 Objective Artist with nearly ten years of related work experience, as well as a portfolio of varied exhibitions and murals that can be found locally and nationwide. Munden has risen to become a leading name in the local KC art community and has recently begun to expand his horizons to out-of-state mural festivals. He has a passion for creating and sharing his art, and flourishes seeing the effect his art has on the surrounding communities. Munden got his start in landscape and spacescape painting through performance art at festivals and art fairs. That experience lead him to create cityscape skyline pieces, as well as some graffiti style works. For the past few years, Munden's focus has remained on large portrait realism and the study of facial forms, expressions, and textures. Relevant Professional Experience Artist (Freelance) • Design, develop, and deliver custom, commissioned art pieces to clients according to their specifications. This includes creating digital or hand-drawn sketches of the proposed work, drawing up a contract, establishing a timeline, and executing the art piece as agreed upon to the client’s satisfaction. • Design and create art pieces to fit into theme-specific exhibitions to be shown in prominent galleries throughout the Crossroads Art District. Exhibitions have previously consisted of themes such as the Mad Hatter, High Fashion Portraits, Expression Portraits, Halloween, and KC Skylines. • Collaborate with other artists with regards to collective murals and art pieces. Examples include creating a custom, collaborative, outdoor art-piece for a client on the Plaza, as well as coordinating the division and allocation of a wall for the Spray See Mo Mural Festival last summer after it had been double-booked.

  • Mechanisms for Enhancing the Retirement Income System of Canada
    Province of Nova Scotia Department of Finance MECHANISMS FOR ENHANCING THE RETIREMENT INCOME SYSTEM IN CANADA The Government of Nova Scotia is working with other provinces and territories, and the Government of Canada, to consider opportunities for enhancing Canada’s retirement income system. The overall goal is to increase savings from employment income of individuals (i.e. future retirees) who are not currently saving enough to obtain sufficient levels of replacement income to maintain their standard of living in retirement. Finance Ministers have been informed by comprehensive research as well as proposals and comments submitted by numerous interest groups and individuals. Selective reports and research from various jurisdictions can be found at: http://www.gov.ns.ca/lwd/pensionreview/default.asp http://www.fin.gc.ca/activty/pubs/pension/riar-narr-eng.asp http://www.fin.gov.on.ca/en/consultations/pension/dec09report.html The Finance Ministers provided direction at their June 2010 meeting for continuing work in this area. They acknowledged the importance of financial literacy and the central role that the Canada Pension Plan (CPP) plays in our government supported retirement income system. Most Ministers have agreed to consider a modest, phased-in, and fully-funded enhancement to the CPP in order to increase coverage and adequacy. Ministers further agreed to continue to work on pension innovations that would allow financial institutions to offer broad based defined contribution pension plans to multiple employers, all employees, and to the self-employed. Results of further work on technical and implementation issues will be presented at the late Fall 2010 meeting.

  • Self-Isolation Requirements in Nova Scotia Revised September 8, 2021
    Self-isolation requirements in Nova Scotia Revised September 8, 2021 DOMESTIC TRAVELERS Self-isolation requirements are based on vaccination status and testing for anyone traveling from Canadian provinces and territories outside Nova Scotia, Prince Edward Island and Newfoundland and Labrador. This includes Nova Scotia residents returning to the province. Isolation requirements are as follows: • People who are fully vaccinated do not have to self-isolate but testing is still recommended. • People who are not fully vaccinated must self-isolate for at least 7 days and cannot leave isolation until they get 2 negative tests results. Fully vaccinated means you had two doses of a World Health Organization approved vaccine (or 1 dose of Janssen) at least 14 days before arriving in Nova Scotia. If you received your second dose of vaccine less than 14 days before arriving in Nova Scotia, it does not count toward your vaccination status. Children 18 and younger must follow the isolation requirements for the least vaccinated adult they are traveling with. If the child is more vaccinated than the adult they are traveling with, they should isolate based on their own vaccination status. Children 16 and older can have their own form using the vaccination information of the least vaccinated adult they are traveling with. Younger children should be included on the same form of the least vaccinated adult they are traveling with. Testing for the purposes of ending isolation earlier than 14 days must be done in Nova Scotia, not in advance of arrival. It cannot be a rapid test. It must be a standard PCR lab test which usually takes up to 72 hours to get results.

  • Art Museums and the Public
    ART MUSEUMS AND THE PUBLIC Prepared for the International Art Museums Division Smithsonian Institution October 2001 Smithsonian Institution Office of Policy & Analysis Washington, D.C. 20560-0405 Introduction This is one of a series of papers prepared by the Smithsonian's Office of Policy and Analysis to brief members of the Smithsonian Council in advance of their November, 2001 meeting on Smithsonian art museums. Preparation for this paper included interviews with art museum staff, some from inside the Smithsonian and some from outside the Smithsonian. The Activities of Art Museums The official definition of a museum, according to the grant guidelines for the Institute of Museum and Library Services, is: "an organized and permanent nonprofit institution, essentially educational or aesthetic in purpose, with professional staff, which owns and utilizes tangible objects, cares for them, and exhibits them to the public on some regular schedule." The International Council of Museums (ICOM) defines a museum as: "a nonprofit making, permanent institution in the service of society and of its development, and open to the public, which acquires, conserves, researches, communicates and exhibits, for purposes of study education and enjoyment, material evidence of humans and their environment." The American Association of Museums (AAM), however, has altered its official definition to insist only on the use of objects, not on their ownership. To be a museum, in its definition, is to meet the following requirements: • be a legally organized not-for-profit
