Worth visiting. - This was a beautiful gallery to visit. The art was all different, and well displayed, and it felt like each room had a surprise in it. Its right in the centre of Whistler so it was a good way to escape the heat and smoke.

Exceptional - Just the exterior itself is an architectural marvel and masterpiece. The exhibits inside are also just as exquisite. Definitely worth a visit if you are in Whistler especially during the summer season as the weather is warm and inviting. Love that this museum showcases the works of prominent Canadian artists!

Native and local art is really good here - This is a really nice museum! Highly recommend this when you have an hour or two after other activities. I really like the native masks, bronze sculptures, and the gallery for auction on the top floor.

Well curated. - Ikeda's Exhibition was excellent. We enjoyed its scope very much. I had a chance to talk to the artist for a short while but it was great.

Impressive artwork - We had the pleasure of visiting this museum during artist Manabu Ikeda's exhibit and also while he was in studio working on his art. Suggest to check the museum's website for his studio hours. The exhibit is incredible and we feel so lucky to have seen him at work. The rest if the museum's exhibit is also wonderful. What a gem to have this art in Whistler.

interesting art and a new artist to follow - This museum is much bigger than it looks! The permanent exhibit was interesting, but we absolutely fell in love with the temporary exhibit (Manabu Ikeda: Flowers from the Wreckage). A great surprise!
