What Travellers Say
Reviews Summary
Visitors praise the Joshua Creek Heritage Art Centre for its beautiful gardens and the quality of its art exhibitions, making it a peaceful and inspiring destination. However, some event renters have noted challenges with venue policies regarding setup, cleanup, and potential refund issues.
"The venue is nice but you are responsible for putting out all table and chairs, and putting them away right afterwards. They require a cleaning fee but not sure what gets cleaned? When the caterer preheated the oven, it set off the fire alarm with smoke. We left it cleaner than we found it and it was agreed we shouldn't have to pay but when we asked for refund, they didn't even bother to reply. Also no overnight parking."
