“Everything about the (Two Rivers) gallery sings world class” according to a recent article in Australia's most popular daily newspaper, the Herald Sun. [http://www.news.com.au/heraldsun/story/0,21985,25794775-5013368,00.html] The article is about Canadian cities to visit by train, and the only art galleries mentioned in all of Canada were Two Rivers Gallery and the $276 million Art Gallery of Ontario; not bad company to be keeping. Two Rivers Gallery needs your support to maintain our world class facility. Operating costs continue to escalate as our building is no longer new; for example, in the past few years the Gallery has had to pay over $17,000 in extraordinary maintenance costs for the steam boiler which helps to maintain humidity level in our strictly controlled environment. Two Rivers Gallery recognizes that every penny counts, so any contribution you are able to make is a generous one.
