Cultural Tourists to the West Kootenay region will find many public galleries and museums which feature exhibitions of visual arts and heritage-related activities from the region. Each urban area has a centre where people congregate to preserve their history or celebrate their art, and here are some of them:

Touchstones Museum

502 Vernon Street (and Ward) in downtown Nelson, BC V1L 4E7 Canada

The old postal, customs and internal revenue building in which this museum is housed stands at the corner of one of Nelson's busiest intersections. Two art galleries feature established local and visiting artists and group shows, ranging from retrospectives to installations. A permanent historical exhibition which includes a changing display area on special artifacts. In the basement are the Shawn Lamb archives.
