Lipont Gallery

Established in 2017, Lipont Gallery is dedicated to presenting contemporary art by Vancouver-based artists working across diverse mediums. The gallery aims to increase the community’s enjoyment and understanding of art through its programming. Its direction is grounded in supporting and highlighting local talent by providing artists with the resources and visibility needed to exhibit work that might otherwise go unrecognized.

Lipont Gallery collaborates with a wide range of organizations on exhibitions that incorporate diverse voices and broaden the scope of contemporary art within the community.
