70 years ago, Lloyd and Frances Hill created an outlet for local native artists to display and sell their work. Today, Hill's claims North America's largest and most varied collection of Northwest Coast First Nations arts and crafts, situated over three floors. It's a wonderful place to find authentic native jewellery, masks, Cowichan sweaters, Inuit sculpture, totem poles, limited...

First Nations "pieces to fall in love with" fill these "museumlike" galleries, whose "amazing displays of native art" and gifts run the gamut from "authentic" paintings and sculpture to clothing; you'll find the "genuine article here", so they're "very expensive", though "even if you don't buy anything" they're "well worth a visit."

In a re-creation of a trading post interior, this shop, established in 1946 and claiming to be North America's largest Northwest Coast native art gallery, sells ceremonial masks, Cowichan sweaters, moccasins, wood sculptures, totem poles, silk-screen prints, soapstone sculptures, and gold, silver, and argillite jewelry.

The title 'souvenir shop' is nowhere near appropriate for this long-established store and gallery located in historic Gastown. If you crave something unique, this store and gallery is the place to go. What began in 1946 as a general store steadily grew into a place where local natives could sell their artwork and crafts. Today, it has one of the largest collections and selections of these... more
