ArtsSmarts Nova Scotia

In Nova Scotia, the Art Gallery of Nova Scotia (AGNS) supports ArtsSmarts in partnership with the Nova Scotia Department of Tourism, Culture & Heritage, the Nova Scotia Department of Education and the Office of African Nova Scotian Affairs.  ArtsSmarts Nova Scotia also has access to AGNS exhibitions and resources.  In conjunction with ArtsSmarts projects, educators, students and artists of all disciplines have the opportunity to learn more about, and respond to, works of art from AGNS's collection, which features historical and contemporary paintings, sculptures, prints, drawings, photographs, video and new media by some of the finest artists in the country.
