HALIFAX STREET WANDERINGS
“Halifax once had arches and gates that those entering the city passed through. These were along the waterfront at a time when most people arrived here by ship from all over the world. Like triumphal arches these gates were ceremonial thresholds. Origins is the Art Gallery of Nova Scotia’s gateway to the world of art. It issues a challenge to visitors before they physically enter the building. Crossing this threshold can be difficult and demanding but the reward is great if you choose to enter and engage.”
