Mary Florence MacDonald is one of the most popular and richest Curator who was born on September 10, 1984 in Truro, England, United Kingdom.
After graduating in 2006, MacDonald participated in the critically acclaimed internship program at the Owens Art Gallery in Sackville, under the tutelage of Director Gemey Kelly. Following this appointment, MacDonald moved to St. John’s in 2008 and began working with Eastern Edge Gallery as Assistant Director until 2010. She then pursued a Masters in Curatorial Studies at OCAD University in Toronto, graduating in 2012. MacDonald returned to St. John’s to assume the role of Executive Director at Eastern Edge Gallery, where she worked until 2015.
MacDonald campaigned against cuts to arts funding and spoke out about the value of artists’ work and societal contributions throughout her professional career, such as publishing a list of artists who had left Newfoundland and Labrador in The Overcast newspaper, saying “this province lacks vision and the ability to retain young professionals.” She spoke out against the Newfoundland and Labrador 2013 budget cuts that led to staffing losses at the St. John’s-based museum and gallery The Rooms. That campaign included a public forum she co-organized to discuss the cuts titled ART=WORK, a slogan she pioneered. Tshirts with the ART=WORK slogan have since been sold as fundraiser by the non-profit group Visual Artists of Newfoundland and Labrador, in partnership with the Mary MacDonald Foundation, with proceeds meant to support artists in the province.
