Ukama Gallery
Ukama Gallery is a free-admission contemporary art gallery on Granville Island specializing in original stone sculptures by over 200 emerging and world-renowned artists from Zimbabwe, alongside paintings and mixed media works by Canadian artists. Opened in 2015, the gallery takes its name from a Shona word for the bonds of an extended family, reflecting its mission to foster personal connections between visitors and African art. Situated in the heart of Granville Island—a hub accessible by bike path, ferry, and transit—it offers a culturally distinctive stop on Vancouver's waterfront cycling circuit.
