    VANCOUVER, BC, March 09, 2015 /24-7PressRelease/ -- Art! Vancouver 2015, Vancouver's premiere international art exhibition, has announced the support of the largest art gallery in Western Canada, Vancouver Art Gallery.

Art! Vancouver, set to have its inaugural event from May 21st to May 24th, 2015 at the Vancouver Convention Centre, has developed into one of the highest anticipated events for the Canadian west coast arts scene.

The prosperous and growing arts culture in Vancouver has been in need for a major international event to showcase itself globally as a sought-after art destination, and Art! Vancouver 2015 international art fair will fill in those shoes.

The recently developed relationship between the highly-anticipated Art! Vancouver 2015 and internationally recognized Vancouver Art Gallery marks an important affiliation between two influential figures that will play critical roles in the future development of Vancouver's arts community.

"Art! Vancouver 2015 will place the Vancouver arts community on an internationally exposed platform," says Art! Vancouver Founder and Director, Lisa Wolfin, "and in order to fully showcase our strength and potential as a recognized global arts destination, it's vital to have Vancouver's landmark art gallery in collaboration with Art! Vancouver."

As the fifth largest gallery in Canada, Vancouver Art Gallery holds a permanent art collection of over 10,000 pieces and has recently surpassed a community of 50,000 gallery members.

Director of Vancouver Art Gallery, Kathleen Bartels, and Lisa Wolfin, both share a common goal in mind.

Both believe in the importance of bringing the best of the art world to Vancouver, while also showcasing the best of Vancouver to the world.

May 21st to May 24th will mark an important time for fulfilling such a goal, and may reveal to the world just how rich the Vancouver's arts community truly is.
