On Thursday night, our team from Six by the Sea gathered along with the community of Peggy's Cove and special invited guests to celebrate the grand opening of the Spindrift Gallery. Visions of Time: Peggy’s Cove Captured Through the Lens of Photography and Film, 1920s to 1950s. Peggy’s Cove is one of the most visited landmarks on the East Coast for its majestic beauty and historical significance. From the 1920s to the 1950s, several photographers and filmmakers visited Peggy’s Cove to document its rugged coastal beauty and the work of the fishermen who lived there. In this inaugural Spindrift Gallery exhibit, you will see Peggy’s Cove as it was captured through the lenses of these men and women. Exhibit on display June 28-October 11, 2024. Free admission. Spindrift Gallery is open Monday to Sunday 10am – 4pm. Originally constructed as an auxiliary building to a family home, Spindrift Gallery has been transformed into a main-floor art gallery with a beautiful second-floor loft to allow for an artist-in-residence program. The gallery will showcase fine art by Atlantic Canadian artists as well as historical exhibits. Make sure to drop in next time you are in Peggy's Cove. https://spindriftgalleryns.ca
