[Bcma-l] BC Collections with H. Faulkner-Smith?

[bcma-l@museumsassn.bc.ca]

Hello Barbara,

>From looking online, it appears that the Art Gallery of Greater Victoria 
held an exhibition of H.Faulkner-Smith's work from September 22, 1959 to 
October 11, 1959.  Perhaps they have a selection of his work in their 
collection, or they might have more information?

I hope this helps; good luck in your search.

Kim Pigott
