A THRIVING ART SCENE.
Revelstoke is known globally as an outdoor recreation destination, but our thriving arts scene is making its mark on our reputation. Revelstoke is brimming with outdoor art, multiple galleries, and many talented artists working in a range of mediums. The jewel in the crown of the Revelstoke art scene is our largest event of the year - Luna Arts Festival.
Here is Tourism Revelstoke's curated guide on where to find local art in Revelstoke, British Columbia.
Galleries.
The Revelstoke Visual Arts Centre proudly displays art from Revelstoke and artists from neighbouring communities. Their exhibits vary and generally feature a variety of media changing monthly with fabulous opening events for each new show. Their gift shop is a great place to find locally created souvenirs, gifts, and art for your home.
Wander downtown and visit Art First, a locally owned and operated independent gallery showcasing local art. Find even more local art close by at Mountain Made Studio showcasing stained glass.
New in 2024, Alpine Echo Gallery opened its doors in Mackenzie Village. The locally owned gallery specialize in fine art, focusing on high-skill pieces.
Art Alleries.
Revelstoke’s public art initiative, launched in 2019, aims to transform our downtown alleyways into outdoor art galleries.
Alleyways are frequently overlooked, avoided, and not often associated with art or tourism. As a legacy project by the organizers of LUNA Festival, Art Alleries revitalizes dark and disused places into thriving public spaces for locals and visitors to walk through and enjoy.
Pottery.
There are many budding potters in Revelstoke. You can find their work in most galleries and shops downtown.
The Revelstoke Farmers Market is another great place to find local pottery or try pottery yourself at the various pottery classes in town.
Check out Jumping Creek Pottery, Sheramic, and Monashee Pottery on Instagram.
