Description: An exterior detail of the former Roseland film theatre, now converted into a motorsport dealership, in New Glasgow, Nova Scotia which was the scene of the famous Viola Desmond case against racial segregation in 1946. The theatre was converted to a nightclub in the 1990s and then to retail and office space in 2015. Artwork by local artists mounted on the side of the building explores the film heritage of the theatre and the significant of Desmond's arrest and challenge of racial segregation in Canada.
