The Varley Art Gallery may receive works of art that are recognized by the federal government as cultural property.

Objects and/or collections with regional or provincial significance can be considered to be of “outstanding significance and national importance” if their importance to the region, province, nation or ethnocultural community is demonstrated. Our Art Acquisition committee reviews the offered works and will apply for certification where warranted.

Significant tax benefits may be available should your donated work meet the criteria of cultural property.
