A Visit to Byrd House Gallery

There is something rewarding about stepping beyond the gallery walls and discovering the creative energy that exists throughout our region.

Recently, I visited artist and designer Julie Jenkinson at Byrd House Gallery, her beautiful home and creative space. I left Byrd House Gallery inspired by the possibilities that emerge when we look at familiar objects—and familiar places—with fresh eyes.

VENUE

Located in the heart of Victoria Hall, the Art Gallery of Northumberland is proud to be housed within one of the community’s most treasured historic landmarks. Built in 1860, Victoria Hall is a stunning example of neoclassical architecture and serves as a cultural and civic hub for Cobourg. Its beautifully preserved interiors provide a unique and inspiring setting for the AGN, where history and contemporary art come together to create a rich and engaging visitor experience.
