    Bay of Spirits Gallery

    The works of Norval Morrisseau – the first indigenous artist to have a solo exhibit at the National Gallery of Canada – are proudly on display in this atmospheric space, which carries aboriginal art from across Canada. Look for the Pacific West Coast totem poles (from miniature to over 4m tall), Inuit carvings and Inukshuk figurines.

    Guild Shop

    The Ontario Crafts Council has been promoting artisans for over 70 years. Ceramics, jewelry, glassworks, prints and carvings make up most of the displays, but you could also catch a special exhibition of Pangnirtung weaving or Cape Dorset graphics. Staff are knowledgeable about First Nations art.

    Arts on Queen

    It’ll be hard to leave this cruisy store and gallery empty-handed. One-of-a-kind pottery, glassworks, photo-graphy and modern, fun art pieces are mostly made by Ontario-based artists, many of whom live in The Beaches.
