The Gardiner Museum, founded in 1983, is a small museum dedicated to the art of ceramics. The original two-storey building was designed by Keith Wagland to zig-zag back from the street to protect views of an adjacent neo-classical limestone façade.

By the early 1990s, the museum’s expanding collections and programs had outgrown the original building.
