Art is a significant part of Islamic history. As a universal language, it connects generations and cultures through time and we present a month or two long
Islamic Art Exhibition
Muslims in Canada come from various regions with enriching and diverse traditions, languages, dialects, and experiences. Everyone has their unique heritage, and it is hard to specify one concentrated market or place to experience Islamic Art, especially in Vancouver. Finding Islamic art largely depends on special events and exhibitions and independent or groups of Muslim artists, their practices, exposure, participation, and showcasing their art, online or in-store.
