Maltese-Canadian Museum

Yesterday, our curator Richard Cumbo had the pleasure of accepting a new donation to our collection 🖼️

Maltese-Canadian artist Cheryl Rodo donated her beautiful oil painting of Dockyard Creek, located in Malta's Grand Harbour. She was joined by her husband Larry (right) and son Daniel (left).

The painting was donated in memory of Michael A. Rodo, Cheryl's father-in-law. Michael came to Canada from Malta in August, 1951.

Thank you, Cheryl, for your generous donation and artistic contributions to our community! 🇲🇹🇨🇦
