Art at the Hospice
OMAH and the Mariposa House Hospice have launched a partnership program “Art at the Hospice”
Various local artists have generously provided their art to be displayed in the hospice. Residents, family members, friends, volunteers, and staff are now able to enjoy the addition of these colourful pieces which enhances the comfortable, homelike atmosphere at the hospice. Each of these original works of art are available to be purchased with a tax receipt going to the artist for their donation.

Land Acknowledgement
The Orillia Museum of Art & History is located on the traditional territory of the Anishnaabeg. The Anishinaabeg include the Ojibwe, Odawa, and Pottawatomi nations, collectively known as the Three Fires Confederacy. We respect and observe the long and enduring presence of Indigenous Peoples – First Nations, Metis and Inuit – on this land. Their teachings and stewardship, culture and way of life have shaped our City’s unique identity.
In acknowledging that we occupy colonized Indigenous territories, and out of respect for the rights of Indigenous people, we accept our collective responsibility to recognize our colonial histories as well as their present-day manifestations in order to honour, protect, and sustain this land.
