We are an artist-owned fine art gallery specializing in traditional west coast style art of the Pacific Northwest. The gallery is on Tseshaht lands and houses Gordon Dick Studio while showcasing the work of local and regional artists. We carry handmade woodcarvings and jewelry, including masks, panels, free-standing or wall-mounted sculptures, doors, poles, and house beams. Ahtsik is a Nuu-chah-nulth word meaning “creating to the best of your abilities” and we select our artwork for its beauty and craftsmanship. May you enjoy it as much as we do.

Amazing volunteer-driven display of Port Alberni industrial history. As interesting as the equipment is, be sure to approach the volunteers who have ALL the stories that bring the displays to life. Also be sure to attend the affiliated train facility at the nearby roundhouse!

Rollin Art Centre

Reviewed By vancouvermuffy2016 - Vancouver, Canada

The Rollin Art Centre is worth a visit - a lovely selection of small gifts and local interest books, along with changing exhibitions-very high level of art. As this was a winter visit, the adjoining gardens were slumbering, but we can see how stunning this outdoor area would be in the summer months. There is some local First Nations art available for purchase in the gallery. I encourage you to drop in and support local artists, and in the summer, sample the tea on the terrace. Lots of street parking, easy access.
