Located in Vanier Park, the Vancouver Maritime Museum showcases the rich maritime history of the Pacific Northwest and the Arctic. Its main exhibition is the St. Roch, the first vessel to travel the North West Passage from west to east. The museum features an extensive collection of maritime artifacts. It will be a fun experience to explore and learn life on the oceans! If the weather permits, you can also sketch outdoors in Vanier Park or along the seawall, which offers stunning waterfront views. The museum building itself can be an interesting subject to sketch.
