AWE Gallery
Sponsored by the Detroit 300 Tricentennial Grant Program, Loyalists Along the Detroit River: Art and Artefacts brings together works of fine art and various objects from public and private collections in the United States and Canada. The nature of this exhibition is biographical, focusing on those individuals who crossed over from the United States to Canada some time between 1785 and 1810, at a time when national borders were being defined. Major figured in the early history of this area are represented by portraits, watercolour views, and domestic and documentary objects.
