" any." Con. Margaret moment City Grant To Gallery, In Offing? Although the Art Gallery of Oshawa has been founded, de- veloped and opened without any financial assistance from the city, Mayor Ernest Marks has hinted a grant may be in the > offing. "It would appear, other cities usually support art galleries with grants and that & probably should be done here" ? he told The Times in an inter- © view. He gave Windsor as an ex- ample saying it gave $25,000 to % its art gallery. It goes to heat- : ing and maintenance, he added. Mayor Marks said he was de- lighted so many people had worked so hard and so fast in producing the present gallery. The climax to their work, he said, was the gift of a new gal- lery donated by Ewart Mc- Laughlin. Speaking of the. new gallery he stated "It should be a great thing. There is certainly a need for more cultyre. It will be a tremendous asset to the city," The new gallery will cost in the neighborhood of $200,000. The processing of paperwork for the new gallery has been delayed since July 25 while the McLaughlin architect proposed sites. Three favored locations which have been discussed at board of : control are: south of the present city hall on Queen Street, the southeast corner of Bagot and Centre streets, and at the old Legion Hall on Centre Street. Mayor Marks said he was hoping for a site on city land since it would cost the city less and would improve the city hall complex. "The painting on the boards around the city hall construc- tion has put art in the fore- front,' the mayor said, "people are thinking about art." THE TIMES put the ques- tion '"'What value do you see in an art gallery?" in Osh- civic offi- cials and other citizens. These are their replies. Tom Ed- "The art gallery is alright if you like art.

Times Photos Entertainment Showcase OSHAWA, ONTARIO, SAT! By JAMES COUPER » of The Times Staff More than 4,000 people, from as far away as. Continental Europe' and Australia have visited the Art Gallery of Osh- awa since it opened June 2 Ian Biggar new president, says the gallery is presenting a wide range of exhibits and fol- lowing a "something for every- one' policy. If the response of an average 30 persons per day is to be termed poor, and no one is certain now many peo- ple should be expected, then it must be attributed, says Mr. Biggar, to an unawareness among the populace of Oshawa. It is this lack of interest Mr. Biggar is aiming to eliminate Membership in gallery stands at 180 but Mr. Biggar is aiming for 750 before the year ends. FOR COMMUNITY "We want the community to participate by looking at the gallery. It is there for them. There are few things more dis- couraging than to provide a service which is not received well." Gallery members are now conducting a membership drive in a minor way. They are gath- ering names of friends, ac- quaintances and anyone they think would be interested in be- roming members and sending them membership forms. "We would like to send an application to everyone in Osh- awa but at four cents an item it just isn't practical,' Mr. Big- gar said.
