white rock gallery

Nothing flashily, nothing exciting, but it does offer some historical contact to the area. It can be done in a short visit - 20-30 minutes and by donation.

It may be petite, but this little gem is well worth visiting. Staff are friendly and helpful. Great on a rainy day - ask for tea and enjoy your visit.

it's a nice place to spend some times...no affordable piece, clean gallery...but of course they did not acknowledge my presence since I was just a single normaly dress young woman

Skytrain to Bridgeport, bus 351 to White Rock Centre, then shuttle to the beach and rock.Township up high, some shops and most restaurants down the hill overlooking the water, wonderful place to visit, with a long Pier where if lucky you may see a sea lion as we did. Nice walking path along the shore.We lunched at "Charlie's " on the balcony, heaters overhead. A great fish and chip meal with a glass of beer for $14.00 each. Large menu available. Recommend this restaurant, friendly staff.Very steep from Town to Beach, so if not fit take the shuttle bus.

Magnificent sunsets looking west from the pier and also from the top of the hiilside in White Rock. There is lots to do in the area with some exceptional resturants and also some very good fish and chip places to buy fish and chips to take down to the tables at the beach.

First of all the owner , Dennie, has been at this location since she opened the gallery in 1989. Dennie has a great sense of style and is a wonderful person to talk to about the art style you may be thinking of for based on your personal taste. Dennie has also been able to get most of the prominent Western Canadian artists who work in oils, mixed media, stone sculptures, acrylics, porcelain, etc into her gallery. Names like Ma, Langevin, Svob, Ward, O'Toole, Bachmann, Buytendorp, Flaig, Hermeth, Muccillo, Wylie,Zhang all have their works in her gallery. Dennie's staff members Amy and Frances are extremely knowledgable and a delight to work with. Besides having a great gallery filled with great art works what Dennie has been able to achieve is a great eye for the framing of these artist's works. If you have ever seen great art poorly framed you will understand when I say that at White Rock Gallery the framing used on all the paintings is spot on. I would suspect that when art is bought as originaly framed it is rarely reframed. Inside of going to Vancouver and paying not only for the art piece but the high overhead come to White Rock and be delighted by the gallery layout, the staff, the artists exhibited and the fair pricing.

Located up the hill from the ocean, this lovely Gallery is tucked in with some cool shops. The selection of paintings from local artists is amazing! Definitely worth a visit if you are in the White Rock area! Staff were very friendly and encouraged us to just browse and enjoy....which we did!
