Shurniak Gallery

http://www.shurniakartgallery.com/

The Shurniak Gallery is a "diamond in the rough". Nestled deep in the countryside of the Canadian prairies this gallery is a vestige of a man who has had a long appreciation for the arts. The story of William (Bill) Shurniak goes back a long way. He was born in Saskatchewan and moved to Hong Kong to work in Banking. After a successful career and plenty of collecting he returned home and founded the Shurniak gallery. This gallery features a wide variety of Eastern, Western and Aboriginal Arts. He is a strong supporter of culture. The current exhibition features work by Nancy Thomson whose narrative focuses on Aboriginal ancestry and the importance of cultural identity.

Based in Regina, this custom guitar making company produces excellent sounding guitars that are second to none. I had a chance to play one a few times while I was in university and it was a true delight.
