About Us

Griffin Art Projects (GRIFFIN) is a non-profit institution that has quickly become a vibrant contributor to the North Vancouver cultural landscape and to visual art practices in the region. Established in 2015, Griffin Art Projects was founded by Brigitte and Henning Freybe, who began collecting art in the early 1970s. Griffin’s mandate is to share private collections with the public. In so doing, it considers the methodologies, thematics and narratives that shape and direct visual culture, creative work, and collecting practices. Griffin achieves this through the development of solo and group projects, and thematic exhibitions, and by working with established cultural producers, guest curators, artists, writers and art educators, nationally and locally to support and promote the arts ecology on the North Shore and throughout the region.

Admission to our exhibitions is free and all are welcome!
