“Experience Authentic Arts & Culture on the Sunshine Coast”

Summer is almost here and if your guests are about to arrive but you still have to work, here are some ideas on how they can get off the beaten trails to truly experience the relaxed and authentic West Coast lifestyle. Artworks Tours specializes in showcasing Arts & Culture, the people and places of the Sunshine Coast. An easy Day Trip and a great way to “Escape the Everyday” Artworks special Guests will visit friendly folks to discover a wealth of local talent, walk along private gardens, touch on history hear about the upcoming Festivals & Events and enjoy lots of sightseeing, all in one day.

Artworks will personally guide your visitors to meet artists working in their home studios where they will demonstrate their skills on various works in progress. Watch as a lump of clay is transformed into an object, a clump of wood is spun into a bowl, or a painting springs to life with colour. Everyone is encouraged to ask the artists questions about inspirations or techniques, and often time’s people come away with a new respect for handmade items. Numerous “One-of-a-Kind” treasures can be found and many are available for purchase.

Three Tours not to be missed are: “Gibsons Landing Walking Tour” (1 hour),
“An Eclectic Arts & Cultural Overview of the Sunshine Coast” (3 to 6 hours), and with an optional way to cruise over by boat “Arts & Marine Tours” (8 to 10 hours from Vancouver).
