The District of Sechelt takes pride in supporting a vibrant arts and culture community. We are home to the Sunshine Coast Arts Council and Arts Centre, as well as the Sunshine Coast Botanical Garden. Our Public Art Collection contains works dating back to 1902 and is on display year-round. The annual Sechelt Arts Festivalsupports both local and off-Coast artists and performers working in all genres. Take a peak into the studios of our local artists during the annual Sunshine Coast Art Crawl. In August of each year the Sunshine Coast Festival of the Written Artsdraws crowds of bibliophiles from across Canada. This 4-day event is the longest running writers’ festival in Canada and showcases the work of both established and emerging Canadian authors.
