Audain Art Museum åbnede i 2016 og blev grundlagt af Vancouver hjembygger og filantrop Michael Audain og hans kone Yoshiko Karasawa. Den 56.000 kvadratmeter LEED-certificerede struktur er placeret i Whistler, British Columbia, og blev tegnet af det prisbelønnede arkitektfirma Patkau Architects. Museets permanente samling viser kunst fra British Columbia fra slutningen af det 18. århundrede til stede. Forankring af samlingen er James Harts The Dance Screen (The Scream Too), den mest betydningsfulde moderne udskårne cedar Dance Screen i verden. Andre højdepunkter omfatter en vigtig samling af 19th og 20th century First Nations masker og arbejder af nogle af Canadas mest berømte kunstnere, herunder Emily Carr, EJ Hughes og de internationalt anerkendte fotokonceptister Jeff Wall og Stan Douglas. Udover den permanente samling har museet besøg af udstillinger af kunst fra Canada og rundt om i verden.

This was a wonderful unexpected surprise this gem of a museum has some fantastic art from Matisse, Picasso and local artist Emily Carr. I particularly liked seeing the photography too, particularly Ansel Adams. The entire museum including its stunning architecture is a must see.
Nice art museum with a vast range of artworks from various local artists and a small cosy art shop.
What a treat! A fantastic art collection, wonderful architecture,site and spaces, friendly helpful staff. I’ll be back!
With my 16-year-old daughter we spent 2.5 hours in the very beautiful architectural special museum that specializes in West Coast artists, first nation, painting, photography. Overall very diverse! Shop offers a wide range. No cafe.
Great art gallery / museum. On the smaller side, but a great chance to see beautiful Canadian works of art over this and the last Century and also masks and sculpture by first world people.
The Audain Museum was one of the highlights of our Whistler trip. Well worth the cost of admission and time required.
In stark contrast to Whistlers sporting fame, the gallery offers a contrast of pace and mood. A divers collection with something for everyone.
This was a beautiful gallery to visit. The art was all different, and well displayed, and it felt like each room had a surprise in it. Its right in the centre of Whistler so it was a good way to escape the heat and smoke.
Just the exterior itself is an architectural marvel and masterpiece. The exhibits inside are also just as exquisite. Definitely worth a visit if you are in Whistler especially during the summer season as the weather is warm and inviting. Love that this museum showcases the works of prominent Canadian artists!
Amazing art and galleries. Another way to get to know the region cultures. One hour entertainment show
