ENCORE | 40TH ANNIVERSARY COLLECTION
Join the standing ovation for 40 years of artwork.
For forty years, Art Works Gallery has been a place where meaningful connections are made through art — between artists and collectors, creativity and community, memory and emotion. Since opening our doors in 1986, we have had the privilege of partnering with remarkable artists and sharing their work with generations of art lovers across Vancouver and beyond.
Our 40th anniversary exhibition, Encore, brings together new work from more than 20 artists who have been part of the Art Works Gallery story across four decades. Like the unforgettable final performance that leaves audiences wanting more, this exhibition celebrates the artwork that stays with you long after you leave the gallery — the pieces you think about for years, return to again and again, and carry with you in unexpected moments.
An encore is never just repetition. It is the return of something beloved with renewed energy, emotion, and appreciation. That spirit is at the heart of this exhibition: a celebration of enduring artistic relationships, lasting inspiration, and the community that has made forty years possible. Be here for the Encore and join the standing ovation for 40 years of artwork at Art Works Gallery.
