Art Gallery of Hamilton. Founded in 1914, the Art Gallery of Hamilton is the oldest and largest art museum in Southern Ontario with a permanent collection that is recognized as one of the finest in Canada. Embracing Canadian historical, international, and contemporary art, the collection consists of more than 10,000 works.
In 1952, the AGH hired architects to design an Art Deco style one-storey building with exhibition space totalling 10,000 square feet. Built on Royal Botanical Garden lands close to McMaster University and the Sunken Gardens in West Hamilton, the Art Gallery of Hamilton opened its second location on December 12, 1953, far from its roots downtown.
