Welcome to the Vancouver Art Walk, an initiative designed to showcase the remarkable galleries and art spaces in the Vancouver Arts District. Our mission is to collaborate with commercial and non-profit galleries and creatives to provide visitors with an exceptional and well-curated tour that can be enjoyed at their own pace.

Our carefully crafted map presents a selection of the most dynamic and groundbreaking galleries Vancouver has to offer. Within these ten blocks, you’ll discover acclaimed local, international, and Indigenous artists, each contributing their unique perspectives and talents. We aim to inspire both locals and visitors to immerse themselves in the rich art scene of our city by exploring the two historic areas that make up Vancouver’s Arts District, Chinatown and Strathcona.

Whether you walk, bike or drive through our district we offer a wealth of curated and thoughtful exhibitions. Join us on this artistic journey and experience the diverse and inspiring world of Vancouver’s art scene.
