THUNDER BAY — After years of planning, work on the new waterfront Thunder Bay Art Gallery will begin in the coming weeks.
The announcement that the project is ready to proceed came the same day that Art Gallery director Sharon Godwin's retirement plans were revealed. In a statement Monday, she said the economic impact that the construction and operation of the new building will have on the city will be substantial, and that it will attract tourists and people from around the world.
About $2.5 million has also been raised locally, and a community fundraising campaign will kick off this spring to obtain the balance.
