Downtown Chemainus has attracted visitors from around the world to view one of the World's largest outdoor art gallery with over 30 murals. Adorning the exterior walls of many area businesses, the murals depict the real people and life of earlier years. Information about the murals and artists can be obtained from the local chamber of commerce.
The Best Western Chemainus Festival Inn is located just a short stroll from the Chemainus Theatre and the murals of the town centre and is adjacent to the 18 hole Mt. Brenton Golf Course. We offer a variety of "Stay for the Play" packages that include golf or theatre tickets with your stay.

We offer you a complimentary deluxe continental breakfast in our "Emily Carr Room". Emily Carr is one of Canada's greatest and most loved artists. Feeling a spiritual connection with her subjects, Emily Carr painted both the landscape and native villages of Western Canada in a unique and modern style that was rejected during its time of production. After years of travel throughout the forests of British Columbia, failing health caused her to remain close to home where she wrote seven books based on her life. Today Emily Carr is highly regarded throughout the world and considered a national icon in Canada. Be sure to visit our World Famous Murals.
The Festival Of Murals in Chemainus will on October 15 at 4.30 PM be unveiling the worlds first Emily Carr outdoor mural right here in Chemainus.  A sneak peak
