For one night only, step into Ancient Futures, where traditions of the past are celebrated and reimagined for the future.

Join us for an immersive late-night celebration of art, music, drinks and performances at the Vancouver Art Gallery. Experience the exhibitions in a new light as you journey across time and imagination. Delve into nature in That Green Ideal: Emily Carr and the Idea of Nature, envision speculative futures represented in Future Geographies: Art in the Century of Climate Change, and encounter the evolving narratives in Highlights from the Collection. In the Rotunda, Jim Lambie’s vibrant installation sets the tone with immersive colour and rhythm.

In addition to incredible art, we invite you to experience performances by Action at a Distance and Shion Skye Carter and delve into a wearable-art-making workshop by FakeKnot.
