Gaultois Through the Years depicts Gaultois' long history, stretching as far back to when Gaultois was first established and includes the fish plant which once employed much of the town and was a huge economic force in the community. It also highlights their vibrant present and the importance of the community members still residing there, like the men chatting at the garbage box. 

Commissioned through the Our Creative Home initiative offered by Business & Arts NL and Municipalities NL, with support from the Government of Newfoundland and Labrador for Year of the Arts, and sponsored by The Paint Shop.
