Our Annual Pop Up Shop takes place in the hub of Nanaimo's Art's District at Nanaimo Art Gallery's new art education space, Art Lab, next to the gallery on Commercial Street.
As a participant of Nanaimo's Artwalk, the Pop Up Shop will be a high traffic event with an estimated 300 – 400 people expected to attend. Artwalk is just in time for holiday shopping and is a creative, fun and inspiring environment for the whole family.

The Pop Up Shop will be organized according to a 70/30 split with the artists taking 70%.While artists are not required to be present with their work during the Pop-Up Shop, they are most welcome to be on site to meet the public.
