Full-scale reimagining of the ground floor prioritizes connectivity, access, and Indigeneity
TORONTO, Sept. 19, 2023 /CNW/ – The Gardiner Museum is excited to announce a transformational $9 million donation from The Radlett Foundation in honour of the late William B.G. Humphries, who established the Foundation, reflecting his lifelong commitment to the collection and presentation of ceramics, and his support of Indigenous communities through the arts. This gift is the largest in the Museum’s history by an individual other than its founders, George and Helen Gardiner. The Foundation’s gift also includes more than 250 objects from Mr. Humphries’s collection of ceramics and decorative arts, with a focus on 18th-century English porcelain. These objects will join 62 pieces previously donated by Mr. Humphries to the Gardiner Museum during his lifetime.
