March 11, all day

Join Canadian Art editors and contributors on Saturday, March 11, for a free day of talks in galleries across Vancouver.

These hour-long gallery visits are held throughout the day at different locations (talks will be approximately 30 minutes long, and start about 10 minutes into the hour). There are two talks programmed in each time slot and all are drop-in, so you can make your own itinerary.

Get up close and personal with Vancouver’s art scene and learn directly from art experts in the city. The day will conclude with a launch party at the Vancouver Art Gallery for Canadian Art’s Spring 2017 issue, “Structures,” which features an artist project and limited-edition multiple by Geoffrey Farmer.
