Madrona Gallery is a lovely art gallery with kind staff present and ample artworks present. Famous for the bears made of bark, there are other paintings and sculptures also available with details on the artist, material and prices included.
A very spacious, not crowded, and free admission place. I love browsing through here to get a sense of the local artists we have on the island. I recommend visiting Madrona Gallery if you're ever taking a stroll through the downtown Victoria area. You won't regret it!

This has to be, in my opinion, the best art gallery in Victoria, where we have a lot of really good galleries. The showcased works and artists are changed every couple of weeks or so and they are always superlative displays. Not a stuffy-attitude place, great works paired with a some whimsical. Always tasteful interesting and sure to make you stop and browse.
You can enter from the front on View Street or from the back on Trounce Alley - another Victoria Landmark.

The staff are welcoming and friendly, the gallery itself is beautifully curated, and not once did I feel out of place (being in the plainest of plain clothes as I was). There's no pressure of any sort, just gorgeous and unique artwork. I was lucky enough to visit the day after an exhibit for Morgana Wallace opened, and was doubly lucky to get one of her pieces for myself! I'd you have the time definitely stop in to see the collections, and if Morgana has an exhibit... free up some time and go for sure!

Sophisticated contemporary art gallery with a welcoming atmosphere and friendly staff. Madrona Gallery features an ever changing repertoire of contemporary art from established and up-and-coming artists. You can also usually find a classic Canadian historical piece or two if you look carefully or chat with the friendly owners. I own an affordable and elegant water colour painting from a west coast artists I've admired for years. Great service and a variety of price points and styles. Always worth popping into in a Saturday, you might even get a glass of wine it's there's an opening that day!
