Travel

Over the years we have been in business in Prince Edward Island, we have travelled widely.

Our travels are working holidays. We research museum design, and study art. We have been to the world's major museums, as well as over thirty World Heritage Sites.

We have been to Europe five times, visiting Holland, Belgium, France, Spain, Italy and Greece. We visit New York and its museums regularly.

We have studied foreign languages, world art, world literature, and world history.

Together with our experience in art, our studies have contributed greatly in enabling us to bring depth and world-class perspectives to work in our home province.
