There are many historic homes in my riding with historical significance, but none is as unique as the Charles Macdonald House, and it is folk art on a grand scale with unique materiality by being the first house built of concrete in Nova Scotia.

Kody Blois, M.P. Kings–Hants

The museum and its collection, in short, are of considerable historical as well as artistic value, not only in and of themselves but as early forerunners of where the province’s artistic culture was going to go during the late twentieth century.
