waverlyFeatured Exhibits / Gold Areas of Nova Scotia Just off the Museum’s concourse where you see the Kids’ Train is our feature gallery. Here you might find a temporary exhibit we have created or one on loan from another museum. Check Upcoming Events to know for sure. If not, we offer a display of paintings from our collection depicting historic gold mining areas in Nova Scotia. Twelve are featured in which the artist Joseph Purcell combined historical images, research, and modern views of some of the 65 gold mining districts that once dotted much of Nova Scotia. A free brochure found in the gallery provides more information on the paintings.
