Vancouver Art Gallery 4.2 (reviews)

Vancouver Art Gallery stands in the centre of a city recognized as a nurturing ground for artistic talent. Through cutting-edge exhibitions, we feature the work of leaders in the field of contemporary art and Vancouver's internationally renowned artists, including Jeff Wall, Ian Wallace, Stan Douglas, Rodney Graham, Roy Arden and Brian Jungen, serving as a portal for their remarkable achievements while furthering British Columbia's artistic legacy.

The Gallery also houses the magnificent works of significant historical artists, including the most extensive collection of the work of Canada's beloved Emily Carr. Our permanent holdings number nearly 10,000 artworks, making the Gallery among the most valuable collections in Canada.

The guided tours are a great way to learn more about the cultural and social contexts of the displays and are led by trained art educators. Each tour reflects the guides passions and interests and last around 45 minutes. They'll also provide tours and workshops for schools which helps promote critical thinking about the world around us. They also provide teen art groups where you go behind the scenes and participate in hands-on art making workshops every month and explore a wide range of issues.
