The establishment of a Canadian branch will be instrumental in advancing our long-term commitment to support collectors and stewards of the art communities throughout the Canadian provinces," commented Seago. "Our aim is to continue to provide innovative solutions and exceptional service as they seek to care for their collections," Seago concluded.
