Last year, in 2025, we hosted six incredible events, each one building momentum and strengthening our creative community. This year, we’re leveling up with four standout events, the very best of the past 18 months, and we’re celebrating one of our biggest milestones yet: the opening of our brand‑new Gallery on Vancouver Island.

​

Pacific Arts Market began in 2018 as a passionate, community‑driven gallery in Vancouver. Over 5.5 amazing years, we earned multiple “Best Gift Shop in Vancouver” awards and were recognized by Lonely Planet as one of the city’s top art spaces.

​

After expanding to Vancouver Island in 2025, we’ve continued to curate exceptional Art Events from Nanaimo to Duncan, building on the success of our 2024 and 2025 seasons. Now, in 2026, we’re stepping into our 8th year stronger than ever.

​

Through it all, our mission remains the same: to uplift local Artists, Makers, and Entrepreneurs with meaningful opportunities, a supportive community, and space to grow.

​

And with our new Gallery opening this year, the best is still ahead.
