Food Program
The Galiano Community Food Program works to build community and food security on our small island. We hold community potlucks, weekly lunches and monthly Games Nights, plus organize Gleaning, Frozen Meals for Seniors, a Garlic Club, Cheese Club, Workshops, School Garden Programs and much more.
Club Parks & Programs
The Galiano Club was founded in 1924. It owns and maintains the South Hall, as well as over 830 acres of parkland on Galiano, including Bluffs Park, Mt. Galiano and the Community Forest. The Club runs the Community Food Program, is the home of the Galiano Players Theatre, hosts the Annual Blackberry Festival and Christmas Market.
South End Community Hall
The “South End Hall” is a hub of the Galiano community and many of our local events are held there on an ongoing basis. It is also a favourite place for concerts, dances, weddings, plays, exhibitions, lectures, etc. The kitchen has convection ovens, industrial sinks, counters and cupboards and all manner of conveniences, and we’re quite proud of it.
