Founded by Jack and Joan Craig, this private family foundation supports the visual and performing arts in Nova Scotia. As long time philanthropists, Mr. and Mrs. Craig have contributed to a number of local and provincial organizations with emphasis on the visual and performing arts. The Craig Foundation contributed significantly to Alderney Landing’s Capital Campaign and in recognition of their donation; Alderney Landing’s Art Gallery is designated in their honor.

The Craig Gallery Advisory Committee meets four times a year to review and select exhibit proposals. In the past year, the committee has seen the number of proposals increase due to the growing popularity of exhibiting at the Craig Gallery. Current members Wendy Vrooman, Rose Adams, Declan O’Dowd, Julie Adamson Miller, Jane Schlosberg, Bob Williams, B Mosher, Angie Reid, Frank Forestall, and Bea McGregor are responsible for developing programming, recommending policy, and selecting exhibits for the Gallery.
