A vibrant and active part of Victoria’s artist community, the AGGV is home to the largest public collection of art in BC and showcases a diverse range of exhibitions: Canadian, historical and contemporary pieces. On permanent display is the work of Victoria’s own Emily Carr, as well as a stunning Asian collection featuring amber and ivory carvings and an authentic Shinto Shrine. The AGGV hosts a variety events including Urbanite: an exciting evening of live music, cocktails, twisted visuals and dancing. Family Days every Sunday provide a kid-friendly atmosphere and include hands-on art making, storytelling, and a stroll through the gardens. Dedicated to the celebration of art, the AGGV is a must-see for those looking to be inspired!
