WELCOME TO THE HEARTH GALLERY
The Hearth Arts on Bowen operates as a non-profit arts organization on Bowen Island, supporting a variety of art forms including visual, performing, literary, theatre and more. We manage two venues - a visual art gallery near the Ferry terminal - The Hearth Gallery- as well as our partnership with the local municipality to program and produce performances in the new Bowen Theatre, located within the new Bowen Island Community Center.
The Hearth Arts On Bowen respectfully and gratefully acknowledges that we are located on Nexwlélexwm (Bowen Island), the traditional and unceded territory of the Skwxwú7mesh (Squamish) Nation and the Tsleil-Waututh (sail-wha-tooth) Nations
We bring arts to the people, and people to the arts.
WHAT’S ON…
Disability and Healing Landscapes

When the Image substitutes the word
June 25th - July 14th
This exhibition gathers works from the past two and a half years exploring memory, spirituality, and transformation. Through themes like magical realism, inner worlds, and human connection, each series invites contemplation. The paintings open quiet spaces for reflection, where the invisible becomes visible and the unspoken finds form. See the newest works by artist Pepe Hidalgo at the Hearth Gallery, Bowen Island.
Return to Nature
July 16th - August 4th
“The way we see the world shapes the way we treat it” -David Suzuki
In Di and Gloag’s second exhibition at The Hearth on Bowen Island the artists seek to immerse viewers in moments of quiet inspiration within the natural world. By reflecting on connections to land and sea, and by returning to nature through experience and thought, we can all seek to better understand our place within the ecosystem.
