This unique a-frame art gallery has been a part of Surrey for over 50 years! The Mind and Matter Gallery is nestled amongst 100-year-old cedar trees and beautiful gardens, on the 3-acre Mikelson estate. On display, you’ll find thought-provoking wood sculptures by the late Arnold Mikelson, and displays of art from local artists including paintings, glass blowing, carvings, fibre, clay and more. Admission is free!
