Culture Shock Gallery

A very cool little shop with indigenous people art, jewelry and other items. The people at Culture Shock Gallery are super friendly and very knowledgeable about the local culture. A small coffee shop in the rear serves very yummy coffee in all sorts of flavors.

Excellent Indigenous owned business in Alert Bay. Cafe on site. Many art, wearables & other First Nations items are in the store. Reasonably priced. Friendly service.

Great little place with lots of unique art pieces, seating area and coffee shop all in one.

It would be great if the coffee shop sold some snacks as there was not a lot open while we were waiting for the 330 ferry!

The coffee and mocha were hot and tasty

Delicious coffee and teas, beautiful views, helpful staff, incredible art work, jewelry, clothing that is locally designed. Highly recommended!

Wonderful Cranmer family members, born and raised on the island, great knowledge, coffee and more.

Really lovely little shop with jewelry, coffee and great friendly staff. The gentleman running the store today was chatty and told us about some local history and the local artists in the shop. I bought a lovely necklace, earrings and some bracelets for the kids. Really nice experience.

This is a great shop. It has beautiful indigenous artwork and jewelry. However, my favorite part is the amazing staff.

What a great shop!
Besides the excellent selection of locally made art, we had the pleasure to spend a few hours with Donna as she expertly introduced us to the traditional art of cedar weaving.
Highly recommended!

Amazing coffee and friendly service! I try to get coffee here every time I visit Alert Bay.

Fun little place with great local connections. The coffee was tops! Bought some local artsy stuff and a mocha, walked the docks in the rain, gotta love the PNW!!

A very convenient location on the water near the ferry terminal which combines top quality coffees and beverages with locally produced art, jewelry and books. A family business that proudly showcases the Kwak Waka Wakw culture and presents a very positive vision for their future.

Great little place with really friendly staff who were happy to share local knowledge. Good (and maybe the only) place in Alert Bay to get souvenirs.

Great Coffee in Alert Bay Awesome gifts from local artists, friendly and knowledgeable staff. A must visit place if in Alert Bay.
