agnes etherington art centre印象
-
This is the Queens University gallery and has some magnificent pieces - including three Rembrants. There is also some very interesting art conservation going on at the gallery,
-
This institution is the best art museum between Toronto and Montreal (not including Ottawa). The old Dutch collection donated by Dr. Bader is especially noteworthy. They continually mount exhibits of challenging Canadian artists - contemporary and historic - as well.
-
A real hidden gem in Kingston, if you like art! Some great paintings on display, including two Rembrandts, and only $5 admission!
-
Very nice collection of African art. Also Northern Renaissance painters, including one Rembrandt. Fairly small exhibition space, but the collection rotates. Art rentals avaialable.
-
This art gallery is small however it is very well laid out and only cost $5 to get in. There are several original Group of Seven pieces along with some Rembrandt's - that alone was worth the price of admission.

Whether for an event, an exhivition, a visit to the Agnes house or to buy the perfect gift, the Agnes is a world class spot to see modern art as well as works from the greatest artists. A definite must if you visit Kingston, it is set in the beautiful historical campus of Queen's University.

The Agnes is quite well-publicized in certain circles. It is a charming building on a beautiful campus and encompasses Agnes Etherington's home as well as the addition. So it has historical value as a building. Agnes was a remarkable woman in many ways and has a special place in the Queen's U story. The Old Masters are worth seeing and a surprise in this small venue. If you get a chance, there is a large clothing collection in the vaults which sometimes is displayed. Definitely a must-see museum.

There wre only half the galleries open for viewing. I am usually very open to modern art, but some of the pieces were terrible. The one brght sopt for me was the African gallery.I am so glad I only had to pay a Sneior Citizen discount ticket price.

I have visited the Art Center twice now and both times have been delightful. The first time was for a high school class trip to see an exhibit on electronic waste. My last visit was this month to see all of the exhibits being offered at the time. They change regularly so that provides reason to make many visits. All of the pieces of art are astounding and many of them have remarkable stories. Some paintings date back to the early 1600s (Bader exhibit) . The best part of the Art Centre is the house that is attached to the building and was Agnes Etherington's. It is a little gem that takes you back in time and features a piano that allows people to play it on Saturday afternoons. Another great element is that the Art Centre has an art rental place for anyone that is interested. Students are FREE, as well as children and Thursday's are free admission days. Overall, this is a must see as it is a highly respected centre.

This is a relatively small gallery space, but the collection is impressive and they mount interesting special exhibits. If you happen to be in Kingston, or visiting Queen's University, it is definitely worth a visit.
