MOA Tours + Self Guided Visits
Vancouver Campus | 10:00am–5:00pm
A visit to UBC's world famous MOA galleries will be a highlight of your time at UBC (and probably the first of many here at MOA) that you will never forget.
Explore traditional and contemporary art from Northwest Coast First Nations and other cultures across the world. See magnificent Indigenous carvings, weavings and contemporary artworks in a spectacular building overlooking mountains and sea. Admire the world’s largest collection of works by acclaimed Haida artist Bill Reid, including his famous cedar sculpture The Raven and the First Men. Explore the Museum’s Multiversity Galleries where more than 10,000 objects from around the world are displayed. Stroll the Museum Grounds, where monumental Haida houses, poles and Musqueam house posts capture the dramatic beauty of traditional Northwest Coast architecture and design. Enjoy a wide range of special exhibitions and public programs, including free guided gallery walks. Don't miss a stop in at the MOA Gift Shop. MOA is situated on the traditional, ancestral, and unceded territory of the Musqueam people.
Even though many of your classes may be online this year, don't forget about the perks like MOA which are ready to welcome you and are located on-campus. If you're studying remotely you'll find interactive artist and curator led tours and talks posted online.
UBC students enjoy free admission to tour in person at MOA, as well as to explore the Belkin Art Gallery, Beaty Biodiversity Museum, UBC Botanical Garden and Nitobe Memorial Garden.
