A striking waterfront gallery at the foot of Lonsdale focused on photography and media art, with rotating contemporary shows and knockout views back across the harbour to downtown. Admission is by donation, making it one of the best culture-for-your-money stops in the region, easily paired with a SeaBus trip and the Shipyards District. The caveat: it's a single-focus gallery with changing exhibitions, so what's on depends entirely on timing.
