Welcome to the New Brunswick Gallery.
The "2017 Delecto Project" was organized by Director at Large Erin McKenna.
Ganong Brothers, of St. Stephen, N.B. is an iconic New Brunswick business, famous for it chocolates, 2017 was the 100th Anniversary of Ganong's famous "Delecto" chocolates. To commemorate this, she organized an exhibit of hooked rugs, celebrating the art and romance of a Ganong box of chocolates.
All mats hooked for this exhibit havel become the property of the Hooked Rug Museum of North America. This art is copyrighted and belongs to Ganongs/Ganong Brothers of St. Stephen , N.B. Canada and they are graciously allowing us to use it for this exhibit.
An interesting fact is that Ganong Bros. chose "Evangline" as the symbol of purity and goodness for their very early chocolate boxes. She would encourage everyone to visit the Ganong web site to get a "taste" of what this company is all about.
Here are a few images from the Gallery - to see all the wonderful hooked chocolate boxes please visit the Museum; there are 51 in all.
