Established in 1996, Coastal Peoples is a leading gallery showcasing museum-quality Northwest Coast First Nations and Inuit artwork for both the curious and collectors. Recognized for representing British Columbia's master carvers, the gallery has earned a reputation for discovering a new generation of talented artists who push the boundaries of this legendary art form.
Located in Yaletown, and now in Gastown, the galleries are set in historic warehouse spaces and are focused on representing an unparalleled collection of contemporary art identifying the distinct carving styles and diverse nations inhabiting both the Northwest Coast of British Columbia and Inuit communities of Northeastern Canada.
