Tofino's Contemporary

This intimate gallery and it’s incredibly welcoming and knowledgeable owner Leah, is a wonderful place to view exciting art and sculpture. We walked in and were immediately greeted and shown around. We fell in love with the painting that was right at the front door and came back the next day to purchase it. As we live in Ontario the owner and her staff were so accommodating and ensured that it shipped to us in perfect condition. It was packaged beautifully and arrived today and hangs over our fireplace as we remember our wonderful trip to Tofino. We so loved this gallery that before we flew home we returned with our siblings and we purchased another piece for our parents that was woven copper and the artist is on their website. When in Tofino this is a must go to!

The Tofino Gallery of Contemporary Art is unique. My experience was extremely positive. We found Leah’s knowledge in contemporary art, access to inventory and artist connections, refreshing. Leah helped us discover new artists, advised framing, and suggested placement in our home. We have purchased three pieces and all were delivered quickly in immaculate condition. Our home is more lovely because of Leah and the Gallery. We are fortunate to live in BC with this resource.

I had specifically planned to visit this gallery on my trip to Tofino and was so very pleased that I did. Leah graciously pulled out all of the paintings by one of my favourite artists and allowed me to sit with them for a lengthy period of time to contemplate the choices. She’s been very flexible with purchase arrangements and shows a sincere interest and concern in finding good homes for her artists’ works. I am definitely keeping my eye on the ever-changing cross-section of collections at the Tofino Gallery of Contemporary Art, whether in person or online.

I had the pleasure of visiting this beautiful gallery on a recent trip to Tofino. The caliber and diversity of contemporary art are excellent, with an accessible range of pricing. The space is beautifully and thoughtfully curated. For a small gallery, it packs a big punch. Leah and Monse were a pleasure to speak with and were knowledgeable and passionate about the artists represented. I highly recommend visiting this gallery on your next trip to Tofino.

We had a great discovery - the Tofino Contemporary Art Gallery tucked away and even greater discoveries of the beautiful art and wonderful host in Leah. We ended up buying on of Ben Fox’s Imaginary Beach #10 before it was hung up. What a wonderful piece! Our experience was wonderful and our new acquisition was shipped on time and very well packaged. We would highly recommend this gem of a gallery when you are out on the West Coast.
