Art Party | Spring 2025

Get ready for an unforgettable evening of art, music and live performance at the Vancouver Art Gallery!

For one night only this spring, the Gallery transforms into a vibrant playground filled with thought-provoking performances, live DJ sets and immersive art experiences. Dance the night away, make art with friends and explore the exhibitions in an atmosphere designed to surprise, delight and inspire.

Be among the first to experience the Gallery’s highly anticipated summer exhibitions: Otani Workshop: Monsters in My Head and Written in Clay: From the John David Lawrence Collection—one showcasing contemporary ceramic innovation from Japan, and the other tracing the history of British Columbia’s studio pottery movement. Plus, discover the latest 1:1 Artists Select installation, featuring a special selection from the collection by acclaimed Vancouver artist Douglas Coupland.

Don’t miss Vancouver’s ultimate late-night art and performance party!
