Spend a few hours here - it is charming and has some amazing treasures. The Dali stuff is all away on the road, but there were plaenty of other lovely things to check out. Regional representation is great.

Another nice place to see in Fredericton. A good collection of art. We spent few hours and enjoyed. They also run art camps for children.

I love cruising around this place. The staff are friendly, the exhibits are interesting, and (bonus!) UNB students can get in for free.

This gallery is a hidden gem - well worth the stop and a great Salvador Dali collection (I'm a fan). Reasonable and enjoyable way to spend an afternoon.
