What to do and see in East Vancouver, Canada: The Best Art Galleries

July 3, 2021 Augustus Redeker

Vancouver was founded as “Gastown” by an Englishman with a penchant for beer and storytelling. Today Gastown is a historic section of the Canadian metropolis, and the lively pubs still reflect the area’s former status as a sort of community drinking center. The city’s forests, grand parks, and impressive suspension bridge beckon travelers to explore them, as do the city’s shops and museums. Relive the glory of the 2010 Winter Games with visits to Olympic venues and the marvelous Olympic Cauldron.

So this little coop gallery is amazing! Perfect for gifts for that hard to get someone. Or if you want to bring a truly beautiful souvenir home, from your Vancouver travels, this is the place. So many beautiful paintings of this cool City on the walls, at shockingly low prices. The artists in residence run the joint, so this is supporting art at it's core. They are local and they are talented.
