Located inside the historic Atlin Provincial Courthouse, the Courthouse Gallery is a community art cooperative showcasing the work of local and regional artists. Operated by the Atlin Arts & Music Society, it offers paintings, pottery, jewellery, textiles, woodwork, photography, and other creations inspired by the dramatic landscapes of northern British Columbia and the Yukon. The gallery is open seasonally, typically from mid-May through mid-September, and provides both visitors and residents an opportunity to purchase original works directly from the artists.
The gallery is not only a venue for art sales but also part of Atlin’s living heritage—housed in a building that once served as the very centre of law and governance during the gold rush. Its presence keeps the courthouse alive as a community hub, transforming a space once known for verdicts and mining disputes into one filled with creativity and cultural expression.
