The Robert Bateman Centre is located on the second floor of the former Steamship Terminal in Victoria’s inner harbour. The Centre displays 111 original paintings and several limited edition prints by the famous wildlife painter and conservationist. Opened in May 2013, on Bateman’s 83rd birthday, the venue hosts visitors from around the world. Outreach to local communities furthers the Centre’s mandate to educate children and adults about environmental issues. A joint project is now underway between Class 7-8 at Sunrise Waldorf School (SWS) in Duncan and the Robert Bateman Centre. A collection of student artworks will exhibit at the Centre May 1-31, 2014.
