Posted: Feb. 18, 2023 10:10AMAfter a decade of displaying the famous naturalist painters art in downtown Victoria, the Bateman Gallery is shutting its doors.

Saturday, Feb. 18., the public is invited, free of admission, to enjoy the final day of the Robert Bateman Gallery. The renown artist himself will be present, offering autographs between 12 p.m. and 2 p.m. The gallery has been occupying the Canadian Pacific Railway Steamship Terminal in the Victoria Harbour since 2012, and is regarded as a staple in the downtown tourism industry.
