Located in Glenhyrst Gardens, a beautifully landscaped sixteen-acre park on the banks of the Grand River, Glenhyrst Art Gallery of Brant offers exciting views both indoors and out. This picturesque property was bequeathed to the City of Brantford by Mr. Edmund Cockshutt in 1957, with his wishes that it be a place for artistic and cultural pursuits. In 1986, the Glenhyrst Art Gallery of Brant was established as a public, nonprofit art gallery.
The gallery displays contemporary art exhibits all year round, including classes, tours and workshops too! So there's lots to do! The permanent collection contains over 700 pieces of historical works, and outdoor sculpture gardens and of course The Golden Teapot and Gift Shop where you can go for a spot of tea!
They have a number of children and adult classes, a summer art camps and lecturers that come in to talk about the exhibitions that are on.
There's also a studio facility year round where you can hold your own exhibitions in the Garderners Cottage.
