About Staying Creative Gallery
Staying Creative Gallery, opened in Fall 2021, is a welcoming art space located in Brentwood Bay, BC, on the traditional lands of the W̱JOȽEȽP (Tsartip) First Nation and W̱SÁNEĆ peoples. Founded by two dedicated artists who previously worked in downtown Victoria’s historic Chinatown, the gallery aims to create a safe and inclusive environment for people of all ages and backgrounds to experience art. The owners are passionate about supporting emerging artists and the local creative community, often showcasing guest artists alongside their own work. The gallery is praised for its impressive curation despite its small size, featuring diverse and beautiful artwork that reflects talent and a unique eye. Visitors enjoy engaging with the friendly owners, participating in community outreach, and attending classes for kids and teens. The gallery also hosts periodic creative sessions and offers opportunities for local artists to show their work, often through calls for submissions advertised on social media. A highlight for many visitors is Chester, the adorable gallery dog, who adds to the friendly atmosphere. The owners’ professionalism, support for emerging artists, and community involvement make Staying Creative Gallery a valuable addition to Brentwood Bay. Whether viewing art, chatting with the owners, or participating in events, visitors find this space inspiring and approachable.

This small gallery will blow you away. The way the space is curated is impressive for such a small space. The guest artists and the in-house artists are all talented and bring a unique eye to their artwork. This gallery is a fantastic contribution to the greater Victoria and local Brentwood bay are scenes. Worth the trip...

Staying Creative is a Gallery that's owned by friendly, talented artists. Stopping by is a joy and there is always something interesting to see! They also do community outreach to bring art to children. <3We had a pet portrait commissioned. It turned out beautifully and was done ahead of schedule.
