Riopelle: Crossroads in Time is a retrospective exhibition that covers 50 years of Jean Paul Riopelle’s creative production. Organized by the National Gallery of Canada to mark the centenary celebration of Riopelle’s birth, the exhibition brings together paintings, sculptures, drawings, prints and collages by the artist. The presentation features artworks drawn from 20 private and public collections and includes a number of significant works, as well as works that have not been previously exhibited. Curated by art historian and independent researcher Sylvie Lacerte, the exhibition highlights one of the most significant Canadian artists of the twentieth century.

Lucy Raven: Murderers Bar is the first major presentation of work by multidisciplinary artist Lucy Raven in Vancouver and the artist’s largest exhibition in Canada to date. Based in New York, Raven (b. 1977) works in installation, photography, video, drawing and sculpture to examine historic and contemporary representations and narratives of the American West. The exhibition takes its name from Raven’s newest work Murderers Bar (2025), the third installment in a series of moving-image installations and related works called The Drumfire. Co-commissioned by the Vancouver Art Gallery and The Vega Foundation, it features an ensemble of sculptural elements and a video, projected vertically on a tall, free-standing aluminum structure in the gallery space. Created between 2023 and 2025, the video centres around the recent removal of a century-old, concrete gravity dam along the Klamath River in Northern California—the biggest dam removal project in American history. The exhibition also presents previous and related works—including a selection from Raven’s series Depositions (2024) and Casters X-2 + X-3 (2021)—that provide further context to her practice and a broader appreciation of her ongoing investigations and visual language. The arc of these works reveals the intermingling of nature and technology; the frequent interrelation of military and entertainment applications; and the impact of these forces on lived experience. Together, the works in this exhibition provide a timely glimpse into the expanding field of Raven’s vision—the push and pull between human intervention and the more-than-human forces of nature and the physical world. The exhibition explores objectivity, subjectivity and perception, from individual and discrete elements of history, technology and the popular imagination to the broader sweep of geological and physical forces that define experience over millennia. This exhibition is part of the 2025 Capture Photography Festival Featured Exhibitions Program. Murderers Bar is co-commissioned and jointly acquired by the Vancouver Art Gallery and The Vega Foundation.

Celebrating 35 artists, Written in Clay establishes the mentors, interlocutors, societies and schools that made up a vast clay community in the region from the 1930s to the early 2000s. This exhibition will be accompanied by a publication.

In a recent interview with The Washington Post , Hoss Zaouali shared his insights on how technology is transforming education. While he and the Voilà Learning team are recognized as Canadian leaders in EdTech, he concluded the interview with a powerful reminder: “Nothing will beat the handshake.” That’s why Hoss Zaouali and his team at Voilà Learning are hitting the road to meet Ministries of Education, teachers, parents, and school boards across Canada—in person. This series of events are proudly funded by the Canadian government in an effort to give school boards and administrators the tools & knowledge to thrive and feel confident in an AI-driven world. While we build ultra-collaborative virtual classrooms for French as a Second Language (W FSL) learning, we believe that real-life exchanges and face-to-face collaboration are essential for lasting impact. This is especially important now that U.S.-imposed tariffs are reinforcing the need to rely on Canadian-made technological tools. We will be in Vancouver, British Columbia on June 16th to discuss the following question: How can we help teachers, students, and parents better prepare for the AI revolution? Thanks to a major grant, we’re launching a national initiative to help teachers adapt to technological change. Our hands-on workshops will cover: The impact of AI on education How teachers can use AI effectively Strategies to save time and boost productivity By engaging directly with communities, we ensure that teachers receive personalized support and practical tools to thrive in this new era of learning. Hope to see you there! Information Source: Voilà Learning | eventbrite

Explore the ancient practice of using sound to access non-ordinary states of consciousness, connect with spirit guides and support personal healing . This workshop integrates Core Shamanism, a method developed by anthropologist Michael Harner to distill the universal principles of shamanic practice from cultures worldwide, with Norse shamanic traditions rooted in ancient Scandinavia. By combining these approaches, the course provides a unique framework for engaging with ancestral practices in a modern, accessible way. A key focus is Seidr , an ancient Nordic technique for journeying and intuitive work that was traditionally practiced by seers to seek guidance, healing, and knowledge from other realms. Through guided exercises, you’ll learn to use sound as a tool to enter these states, strengthen your intuition, and establish meaningful relationships with your guides. Kasia is a sound healing practitioner and shamanic guide with extensive training and experience. She is a graduate of the Shamanic Healing Series through the Foundation for Shamanic Studies and an active member of its Circle, as well as the Circle at the Scandinavian Center for Shamanic Studies. As a Seidr practitioner and sound healer, Kasia integrates her extensive background in shamanism and sound healing to guide you through these ancient practices.

Connecting with Guides: Learn shamanic journey methods to establish a meaningful connection with your guides. Through sound and intention, develop tools to receive insights, support, and wisdom from these unseen allies. Drumming for Journeying : We will then explore rhythmic drumming as a powerful tool to journey between the worlds. You will experience sound as a means to connect with spirit guides, ancestors, and allies. Sound as a Gateway : Specific frequencies and instruments, like crystal bowls and drumming, harmonize your energy field and enhance your journeying practice. You will develop your skills to work with sound as a catalyst for intuitive insights and personal growth.

In its exhibition design, Emily Carr: Navigating an Impenetrable Landscape draws out the question of the opening and closing-off of space in Carr’s landscapes by contrasting a densely hung group of paintings with sparsely hung later works that depict an open horizon. Ironically, many of the spatially open works are open precisely because they depict landscapes that had been recently subject to clear-cut logging. This exhibition uses the spatial metaphor of closeness to and distance from nature to probe Carr’s thinking about the forests she painted. It will also examine how Carr’s representation of some Indigenous subjects—particularly villages and totem poles set within landscapes—sit in relation to the dense forest and what this might suggest, given the late 19th- and early 20th-century tendency to conflate Indigenous cultures with nature.
