VICTORIA, BC. The Horticulture Centre of the Pacific (HCP) is growing more than plants these days with life sized art displayed throughout the Gardens thanks to a partnership with the Vancouver Island Sculptures Guild (VISG).

“We are very excited at this opportunity to show members of the Sculptor’s guild work in such a beautiful and appropriate setting.” said club president David Hunwick. “There is truly a synergy between the sculptures and the garden landscape of the HCP.”

Works on exhibit are from artists Daniel Cline, Audrey Van Eerden, Bob Williams, David Hunwick and the late Jan Johnson.

“We are pleased to add our 32nd partnership to the Gardens”, said HCP’s executive director Roger Charles. “The Sculptures Guild installation in the Fuchsia Garden plus the Bonsai Club’s 18 pieces in the Takata Japanese Garden are just a few more reasons for the public to come and visit the Horticulture Centre.”

HCP is a charitable non-profit that operates 10 acres of demonstration garden and 93 acres of conservation area on Quayle Road in Royal Oak. Garden hours are 9-4 daily and regular admission applies.
