Scope and Content
Photograph shows the Burnaby Art Gallery at 6344 Gilpin Street (later 6344 Deer Lake Avenue). Built in 1908 by R. P. Twizell as the private residence of Henry Ceperley. For a time, it was the home of Vancouver's former Mayor Buscombe. In 1940 it was occupied by the Order of Benedictine and later became the communal dwelling of the Canadian Temple of the Universal Foundation of More Abundant Life. The conversion of the estate to a cultural centre was Burnaby's centennial project and the first art show was held in June 1967.
