Cape Breton Gallery
15830 Central Ave
Open Daily 11 am – 5pm (Closed Mondays)
Local photographer Rob Romard beautifully captures the scenery of Cape Breton island both on and off the golf course. He prints and wraps each canvas onsite at the Cape Breton Gallery, so custom-sized orders are available quickly. Most airlines will allow you to carry on the smaller pieces, but if you’d like a larger piece, he can ship internationally, which is also free when you spend over $200.
We feature numerous pieces of his work in Cabot Cottage, but it is best to pop into the gallery to view the whole collection and choose something to bring home.
