Opening on Saturday September 8, 2018 - Closes on November 10, 2018
Held at Art Gallery of Northumberland, West Wing, 3rd floor, Victoria Hall, Cobourg
The exhibition will actively demonstrate the connection, in both past and present, to Marie Dressler and the Town of Cobourg. Visitors will leave with an understanding of who Marie Dressler was, what she meant to Cobourg, and what she means today.
