The Gallery @ Weird Church

The Gallery @ Weird Church is a way of bringing art to life in a new way in Cumberland’s iconic red roofed building.  The Gallery seeks to provide a much needed showcase for the multitude of talented visual artists from Cumberland and the Comox Valley, while offering the community another opportunity to engage with the arts.  Local artists will find an enchanting exhibition space and The Gallery is sure to make for a highlight to any visit to Cumberland, especially when combined with a hike, bike ride, or fantastic meal.  Each month one or more artists will be featured. 

Viewing times will be limited in January 2025, when the The Gallery sign is displayed outside of the church at 2688 Penrith Avenue, Cumberland.  For the latest up to date information on shows and times, please visit The Gallery @ Weird Church on Facebook.

Entry by donation. Please contact info@weirdchurchcumberland.com for more information.

Project Overview

The Gallery seeks to provide a much needed showcase for the multitude of talented visual artists from Cumberland and the Comox Valley, while offering the community another opportunity to engage with the arts.  Local artists will find an enchanting exhibition space and The Gallery is sure to make for a highlight to any visit to Cumberland, especially when combined with a hike, bike ride, or fantastic meal.  Each month one or more artists will be featured.   More than 500 people flow through the space each week, so even aside from The Gallery hours, artists receive significant local exposure.

The Gallery functions more as a cooperative arts space than a traditional gallery, with artists having more involvement in the month they are showing and retaining a larger percentage of sales generated.
