Event Description

Family Visits explores the vast possibilities of what family can be and mean. Considering family structures across species and realms of life, this exhibition offers an intimate look at relationships of support within conventional family units and chosen families.

The ever presence of ancestors and family legacies is woven throughout these drawings, paintings, photographs, prints, sculpture, and textiles by more than 40 artists, telling stories of human and more-than-human families.

Family Visits presents a selection of artworks that joined the Art Gallery of Greater Victoria collection between 2020 and 2026. The collection, too, is like a family, cared for and stewarded by the AGGV team.
