The David Tuck Memorial Library accepts donations of books and other media that meets the library’s mandate to support arts education in Newfoundland and Labrador, with an emphasis on local practice.
Newfoundland artist David Tuck, 1953-2015, died well before we were ready to say goodbye. The David Tuck Memorial Library is a tribute to him, and serves as a way to say “a part of you is still here with us.” Love you David, from all your friends.
