At each venue you are free to explore and chat to business owners and workers about the art and Whistler itself, gaining a wonderful insight into what makes this place so incredible.

Launch event at Whistler Real Estate

Once again we are proud to be working with ArtWalk and hosting the launch reception, taking place on Saturday, September 3.

In addition to the artists Featured at our offices, artists featured in other galleries for ArtWalk will also be in attendance to share their stories of inspiration and engagement.

Live entertainment will be provided by Arts Whistler creating a fun, eclectic atmosphere inviting you to unleash your inner creativity and engage in a communal art piece.

There will also be delectable treats and thirst quenching drinks, making this is a must-attend event this Labour Day weekend prior to joining other village goers for a free Mother Mother concert at Whistler Olympic Plaza.

Mix and mingle with the artists, grab a drink, and check out the amazing talents of these local artists. We hope to see you there!
