The first episode in a series of exhibitions highlighting local collectors, this show presents highlights from the remarkable collection of Tom Banks. Banks has been collecting and learning about Canadian studio ceramics for over many years. His dedication to the integration of art into his life is evident in his home, which features over 1,400 pieces by leading ceramic artists, often arranged in creative installations. Banks also collects paintings and other artifacts and is a passionate supporter of Prince Edward Island’s art and art history.
