With a landscape as breathtaking as Vancouver Island’s, it’s no wonder so many artists make their home here.

In addition to numerous studio tours and galleries welcoming visitors year-round, a variety of arts-related special events are scheduled in communities up and down the Island.

A highlight of the Campbell River calendar is Painters at Painter’s, May 24 to 26. The annual celebration of art is hosted at renowned Painter’s Lodge where more than 1,000 guests meet and talk with the artists.
