Ferry Building Gallery/West Vancouver Cultural Services
The Ferry Building Gallery is a public community gallery operated by the District of West Vancouver. The Ferry Building Gallery enlivens, enriches, engages, informs and educates the North Shore community by presenting a diverse array of stimulating and high-quality exhibitions and displays.
The mandate of the gallery is to support the development of emerging and established artists from the North Shore, the Sea-to-Sky Corridor and the Sunshine Coast. By organizing art lectures, tours and programs reflecting the cultural diversity of the North Shore, the gallery provides valuable, enriching artist-led experiences to the community.
The gallery is housed in the historic Ferry building, which is currently under restoration and will re-open in November 2022.
