FAQ

We are located and West 2nd Ave and Fir Street, just outside of Granville Island. There is street parking near the gallery, and ample parking on Granville Island.

Yes, we ship globally and have many years of experience packaging fine art.

Yes, we only carry works created by Indigenous artists. We do carry some giftware that is manufactured, but we ensure that Indigenous artists are paid royalties for pieces that are not handmade.

Most pieces in our gallery are handmade and one-of-a-kind. In some cases, artists will recreate pieces, but because they are handmade there will always be some differences from the original images displayed on our site.

We have long-term relationships with many of the artists we represent, so most pieces are purchased directly from the artist. Artists set their retail prices. In some cases, such as when an artist is deceased or no longer creating, we will take works on consignment from the secondary market.

All of the art and jewellery that we sell at Lattimer Gallery is intended to be purchased and appreciated, by non-Indigenous and Indigenous people alike. We do not deal in culturally-sensitive or ceremonial objects. The work we sell is made for the art market. The primary difference between appreciation and appropriation is that of consent or permission to share in a cultural exchange.

In some cases, we are able to offer a layaway payment option. We require payment in full within three months of a layaway agreement being signed.

In the majority of cases, artists set the retail prices for their work. When we acquire an artwork from the secondary market - if the creator is not alive or accessible - we complete research to discover the current market value. 

While our flagship location near Granville Island in Vancouver focuses on contemporary fine art and jewellery, our YVR Airport location carries smaller items and giftware. Many of the items and products offered at our YVR Airport location can be purchased through our online gift shop, Northwest Coast Gifts

Yes, we do. Many artists that we work with can create pieces with specific dimensions, themes, and colours. From wall panels to silver bracelets, we can help you order something completely unique and personal. Please note that most artists require 8+ weeks to complete custom orders. We also have decades of experience organizing large orders for conferences, ceremonies, and corporate gifting.
