Vancouver Art Gallery, the largest art gallery in Western Canada, resides within the historic provincial courthouse at the center of the city. A permanent collection of more than 10,000 pieces emphasizes regionally relevant artists but also plays host to a quantity of European works from the 16th and 17th centuries. Of particular note, Vancouver Art Gallery offers the most developed collection of Emily Carr works worldwide. After appraising 40,000-plus square feet of curated beauty, you’re sure to exit the building feeling rich with culture.
