Established in 1986 as a resource centre for a broad membership of dance professionals and the public in British Columbia, The Dance Centre has evolved into a multifaceted organization offering a range of activities unparalleled in Canadian dance. Our goal is to support the development of dance and to develop an environment where it can thrive. We offer programs and resources supporting the professional development of artists, present public performances and events, manage Scotiabank Dance Centre, Canada's flagship dance facility, and work to promote BC dance.
Patron Art House is located in the Fairview Slopes neighbourhood on the west side of Vancouver, British Columbia, Canada. We present exhibitions of represented and guest artists monthly.
We are committed to supporting living artists through our exhibition program, and through our services aimed at both private and corporate collectors. Our mandate is to educate a wider audience about Vancouver artists, as well as bring the community of artists, collectors, galleries, and professional services together through collaborative projects and partnerships.
