Carr
House is the birthplace of Emily Carr, one of Canada's most important artists.
Built in the 1860s, the house has been partially restored to reflect its
appearance in the 1890s. It contains a number of the Carr family's possessions,
including Emily's pottery and sculpture.
Emily Carr is best known for her paintings of Vancouver Island's rainforests and
totemic Aboriginal sculptures.
Emily Carr House is a 10-minute walk south of Victoria's Inner Harbour via
Government Street.
