Top 5 Art Museums in British Columbia

719 Track St W, Revelstoke, BC V0E 2S0, Canada

“A lovely little railway museum with friendly staff and reasonable admission fees. The exhibits and trains were interesting. The train driving simulator was a bit disappointing because it wasn’t operating properly (you basically couldn’t do anything except take the brakes off and honk the horn) but that is just a small part of it. We’d recommend a trip!”

34224 Dewdney Trunk Rd, Mission, BC V2V 6Y5, Canada

“This is a very special church and monestary. It is so beautiful inside, and it is sitting on a hill majestically. We came in the afternoon, and the low sun shines through the stained glass. There is a short hike to a viewpoint with a rare, panoramic view of the valley. If you are passing by Mission, come check this place out. It's worth seeing. 1 hr visit is more than sufficient, including the hike. Note: There is a dress code to enter the church as this is a monestary run by the Benedictine monks.”

250 Winnipeg St, Penticton, BC V2A 5M3, Canada

“The theatre was clean and unbelievably cold. As the movie progressed, the temperature noticeably dropped, which was a huge relief because it was unbelievably hot in the entrance/concession area. Each staff member was working really hard. Everyone was pleasant.”

“One of my Favorite nursery in the lower mainland. I live in Burnaby and I enjoy each time in the nursery. I visit 3-4 times during summer. One of the new Indian young lady, she is always helpful , knowledgeable and willing to help. Prices are pretty good and the best they have wide selection of plants and definitely good quality. I enjoy the whole set up from the entrance of the nursery and around the garden center 👍 I will definitely recommend to any one to visit and it’s worth the drive there. 😄”

Hope, BC V0X 1L2, Canada

“Unexpected discovery during our roadtrip to Osoyoos this year. We stopped to get some leg rest and found this interesting historical spot. Stop by and visit this place, read about historical events happened here in 1960s. There is parking with EV charging stations, washrooms, and picknick tables with a killer view.”

“I had a fantastic time at my recent visit to Cineplex. The theater was clean and comfortable, and the screen and sound quality. The selection of movies was impressive, catering to a wide range of tastes. The staff were friendly and efficient, and the concessions offered a variety of tasty snacks. Overall, Cineplex provided a wonderful cinematic experience, and I can't wait to go back for another movie night!”

6100 Boundary Rd, Burnaby, BC V5S 3R2, Canada

“Came here for pumpkins after dark. My first time and for 50 bucks (2 tickets 1 adult one child).. there is NO wow factor. The carving skills, sure that was amazing but the general set up, the execution of the event, the display of the artwork.. it's very blend and boring. they have time slots for tickets, but really, that serves no purpose. Too many people on the trail at once MAKING it harder to get pictures or enjoy the display.I lost interest after a few minutes. My kid was bored . It's pointless..can't enjoy anything but wait in line or turns to click a snap.. it was wet and trail was becoming slippery, poor lighting in some places of the trail. Nah.. not worth it! Better to go mann farms than this.”

1291 Gladstone Ave, Victoria, BC V8T 1G5, Canada

“Great place to see a play, good sight lines and audio. Well organized front office. Parking is a bit of a drag but it's the location and the city of Victoria,s ongoing war on cars. Imagine the gall of seniors on a cold rainy night thinking they might want to drive . Otherwise no issues”

457A E Columbia St, New Westminster, BC V3L 3X6, Canada

“It's the best and wonderful place!!! I thought I might get bored quickly, but I ended up staying for 5 hours. I was able to experience valuable games that are rarely ported to consoles. I think the maintenance is well done compared to other place. If I could make a request, I would like the volume of OutRun to be made even a little louder. And if you have AfterBurner, I look forward to it coming someday.”

1431 W Broadway, Vancouver, BC V6H 1H6, Canada

“Really an awesome store for art supplies. They have almost everything that one may for an art project. Thete are two floors of pact shelves in several isles. I have walked by the store many times but had not come in before today. I came in today and was absolutely impressed by everything they have. Next time I must bring my grandsons and let them wander around and discover. They also have funny cards on the main floor. Here they have paints, brushes, pencils, book, beads and whatever else necessary for making art. Downstairs, they have canvasses, frames, paper and more. Staff very friendly and willing to help. Definitely a great place for young and old, artist or not.”

355 Burrard St, Vancouver, BC V6C 2G8, Canada

“If you love Art Deco, pop into this 1930s office building near the water. It’s open to the public to see the architecture inside. Most of the design is in the lobby and don’t sleep on going inside one of the elevators. There are a few shops in the basement. Restrooms are in the basement but they aren’t open to the public unless you ask a shop owner to let you in.”

“Title: A Memorable Experience at the Folk Festival at Senittinial Theater Rating: ★★★★★ (5/5) Date of Visit: June 3rd, 2023 I recently had the pleasure of attending the Folk Festival at Senittinial Theater in North Vancouver, and I must say, it was an absolute delight. From the moment I stepped into the venue, I was swept away by the vibrant atmosphere and the incredible talent showcased throughout the evening. First and foremost, the lineup of performers was exceptional. The organizers did a fantastic job curating a diverse range of folk artists, each with their unique style and captivating stage presence. From solo acts to bands, the talent was top-notch, and it was evident that every performer had a deep passion for their craft. I was particularly impressed by the variety of musical instruments and the skillful musicianship on display. It truly made for a memorable experience. The Senittinial Theater itself was an ideal venue for the Folk Festival. The acoustics were impeccable, ensuring that every note and lyric resonated beautifully throughout the hall. The seating arrangement provided excellent visibility from every angle, allowing the audience to fully immerse themselves in the performances. The staff were friendly and accommodating, making sure that everyone felt comfortable and had a great time. The highlight of the evening was undoubtedly the sense of community that permeated the festival. Folk music has a way of bringing people together, and this event was no exception. The audience was enthusiastic and engaged, clapping and singing along to their favorite songs. It was heartwarming to witness people from different backgrounds and generations coming together to celebrate the power of music and storytelling. In addition to the outstanding music, the Folk Festival also featured a variety of food vendors and artisans showcasing their crafts. This added a lovely touch to the overall experience, allowing attendees to explore different flavors and appreciate local talent beyond the music. One small suggestion for improvement would be to provide more seating areas outside the theater, as the festival was so enjoyable that many of us wanted to relax and continue the conversations sparked by the performances. It would have been wonderful to have a designated space to unwind and connect with fellow festival-goers. Overall, the Folk Festival at Senittinial Theater was an unforgettable evening filled with exceptional music, a welcoming ambiance, and a true sense of community. I highly recommend attending future editions of this festival to anyone who appreciates folk music and wants to experience the magic it can create. I am already eagerly looking forward to the next event and the wonderful memories it will undoubtedly bring.”

808 Douglas St, Victoria, BC V8W 2B6, Canada

“This is a great small house movie theatre. It is a common venue for independent and art films, so be sure to check for their current offering. A small concession stand and washrooms along with a small lobby make for a good spot away from the crowds.”

4900 Anderson Way, Vernon, BC V1T 9V2, Canada

“Great game selection...smoking terrace..Match eatery is always great....very friendly staff great food..free billiards”

1940 6 Ave, Castlegar, BC V1N 3H5, Canada

“Went there for the first time the other day. What a weirdly wonderful cinema. I wasn't sure what to expect from a small town movie theatre, but that place is super comfortable, with a good selection of movies, and great prices.”

900 Fifth St, Nanaimo, BC V9R 5S5, Canada

“Lack of professionalism and poor communication skills of the staff at this university. This is now my second time with a bad experience with this university. First in 2016/17, one of the teachers in the ABT program was highly inappropriate with the students and only cared about their personal lives, allowed students to be bullied and some had to leave the program. Now in 2023 I emailed an inquiry about their language proficiency certificate after no one would call me back after leaving messages at the future students office. I was told 3 times to contact someone else and the last person Barbara could not be bothered to respond after numerous emails over the course of a month. Finally I got through on the phone a month later with future students and he told me to contact Hope who was very rude to me via email. She talked down to me like I was stupid for not knowing about the program, putting things in “basic terms for me to understand” (direct quote) and not contacting Barbara before. After telling her that I don’t appreciate the attitude and it’s not my fault her staff couldn’t be bothered to email me back after a month of trying to communicate, Hope never responded. The lack of basic customer service skills and professionalism at this school is appalling. Highly don’t recommend this school endless you want to be treated poorly.”
