The Permanent Collection
Olha and Mykola Kolankiwsky: FoundersLargely thanks to the generous gifts of Olha and Mykola Kolankiwsky, our Permanent Collection was established in 1976 and continued to grow through nearly two decades of their philanthropy. During this time, they assembled and donated nearly 200 works of art to the Niagara Falls Art Gallery. While a considerable number of the pieces are of Ukranian decent, the work collected varies from both North American and European origins.
