On Tuesdays, admission is by donation, so you can come for $5 or more. Be sure to buy your tickets in advance online since entry is timed and also limited. You can buy at the door, but by the time I arrived, they were sold out for the night so they weren't letting people in if they hadn't purchased online. It was raining but the wait outside wasn't long. They provide umbrella bags for your wet umbrellas.

There are QR codes for audio portions but for the most part you just walk around I dependently. There were some interactive portions like writing a wish on a card to hang on the leaf of a plant, gluing together string and plate shards, or stamping a map. If you are a fan of John Lennon & Yoko Ono, now would be the time to come since they have a bed-in exhibit. I particularly enjoyed the large mural by James Harry & Lauren Brevner.

In terms of accessibility, there were a few places to sit but not everywhere. The washrooms, parkings, and exhibits all seemed to be wheelchair accessible.

Everyone was wearing masks and it wasn't overcrowded as the gallery was controlling capacity. It felt like an enjoyable and COVID-safe Tuesday evening activity.

Parking downtown is very difficult and there are a lot of one-way roads and construction. We managed to find the cheapest and most convenient parking after 6pm right under Robson Square! The entrance is at Nelson & Howe. Drive up Howe from Georgia towards Nelson. Right before Nelson, on the right side is the parking entrance. It's not super obvious so keep an eye out! It's a flat rate of $6 after 6pm on weekdays. We were late and missed our 5pm timed entrance due to parking, and they kindly let us in after 6:30 regardless of the time of our tickets, which we were quite thankful for.

I most enjoyed seeing Emily Carr's works of art in front of me. This isn't as big of a gallery as I was expecting, but that's because some portions were closed off. In that regard, I'm happy to have gone on the donation day. I may not have been as happy with the full price of admission with their current collection size versus other what you can see or do at other paid activities in dowtown Vancouver.
