Presented by TD Bank Financial Group, the Art Gallery of Hamilton celebrates Italian art and culture with Vista Italia in 2009. Between May and September, viewers can experience the rich period of the Italian Renaissance and Mannerism through loans from major international museums, the cutting-edge of contemporary Italian art and the influential creations of post-1960s Italian design. In addition, the Gallery will offer films, talks, performance, children’s, adults and family programming in the spirit of our Vista Italia theme.
For Italian-inspired programmes and events, please click
AGH adults, AGH kids, and AGH film series and look for our
