After the nostalgia and kitsch of Chinatown, stop by the Ayden Gallery for a breather. We were stuck in the Chinese New Year parade crowds and somehow found our way into this refreshing little spot.
Apparently it just opened, featuring the artwork of Canadian, if not local, artists and designers. It’s not all hoity-toity expensive stuff either. Very new and fun. These manga animation paintings were going by silent auction starting at a reasonable $250.
I coveted the unique glass chandelier but it’s hand blown so I fancy that costs quite a bit more.
Pop in for a peep.
Ayden Gallery, International Village (Tinseltown), 88 West Pender, 2nd floor, Vancouver, (778) 891-4310. Open Tues-Thurs 5-9 p.m., Fri-Sat 5-10 p.m., Sunday 5-9 p.m. or by appointment.
