Explore Sechelt's Public Art Collection

The first work of art to enter the District of Sechelt's collection was the painting Sechelt Waterfront, 1902 by Henry J. DeForest. When the Village of Sechelt opened its first municipal hall in 1956, Geoffrey Whitaker presented the DeForest painting as a gift to the newly incorporated village. In 2005, the District of Sechelt began commissioning works of art by local artists for inclusion into the collection.
