The District Foyer Gallery is part of the Art in the Community Programme facilitated by the North Vancouver Community Arts Council in partnership with the District of North Vancouver. This programme enables emerging artists to gain exposure and experience the professional orchestration of an exhibition in a public environment. It also exposes the public to art in non-traditional environments. Each new exhibition enjoys a Public Opening Reception, with the artists in attendance, on a Thursday evening hosted by the Arts Council in collaboration with the artists.
