“A world class art exhibit in a great small town!”
This old Canadian landmark was built in 1910 as
the First Baptist Church. In 1977, the Abraham
family purchased the building and converted it
into their family residence. After 30 years of
serving as their home, the Abrahams have now
donated the mansion, the art, and the gardens
as a public art museum, known as The Citadelle
Art Foundation, to help share their blessings with
generations to come.
