Eastside Culture Crawl

Explore studios, workshops, galleries, and a new pop-up exhibit for home-based artists over four visually-stunning days.

One of the most significant cultural events of the fall season, the Culture Crawl open studios attract and inspire tens of thousands of visitors annually. Encompassing the region bounded by Columbia Street, 1st Avenue, Victoria Drive, and the Waterfront, the Eastside Arts District (EAD) is the most concentrated area of artists, designers, performers, craftspeople and culture producers in Vancouver. It is known nationally as an area rich with creativity and inspiration. The festival offers visitors a window into the artistic practices of artists living and working in Vancouver’s EAD, representing creators specializing in painting, jewelry, sculpture, furniture, leather goods, photography, glass works, textiles, and more.
