Arts & cultureMetchosin village, Metchosin

Metchosin ArtPod.

Artist-run, non-profit gallery in the old Metchosin School with juried themed shows, the Cove Gallery for solo work, and weekly drop-in drawing and painting.

Known for six blind-juried themed shows a year and a $10 Monday watercolour drop-in

2019Open since 2019. That's 7 years. Founded and run by local visual artists as a non-profit society.

Our take

Local artists set up ArtPod in 2019 and run it as a non-profit in the old Metchosin School. Six open calls a year are juried blind by an outside juror, so the walls change often and the names are not always local. In late 2026 it added the ArtPod ArtLab and a workshop space next door, with founding support from the Metchosin Foundation.
