HomePreserving our Common Heritage
The Canadiana Fund was created in 1990 to enhance the beauty and significance of state areas of the official residences through public donations of furnishings, paintings and objets d’art or the funds to purchase them. Pieces are chosen that reflect Canada’s heritage, artistic traditions and historical associations, or to complement the architectural style of a particular residence.
Many of the pieces highlighted in the virtual tours of the official residences on this website were generously donated through the Canadiana Fund to the Crown Collection for the official residences.
