Foreword

It is with both pleasure and pride that the above Committee of the Vancouver Art Gallery presents the First Annual Exhibition of British Columbia Artists.

A total of 330 works of art (pictures and sculpture) were submitted. All these are by living artists. The broadest consideration was accorded to each entry before final selection was made.

It is the desire of the President and Council that the Gallery shall be recognised as an art community centre in the finest sense of the term. To this end the Committee considers that the present Exhibition of British Columbia Artists should prove a creative stimulus as well as an encouragement to every artist whose work was entered.

The Exhibition Committee takes this opportunity of expressing its thanks to every entrant, whether successful or not and to the various Art Societies of British Columbia for the assistance, so freely given, in organizing this Exhibition.
