Gallery Gachet
Named after Vincent Van Gough's homeopathic doctor, Paul Gachet, Gallery Gachet works to provide a safe, borderless place of artistic expression. It strives to be a place of healing and a centre of artistic excellence. Founded in 1994, we provide opportunities to exhibit, perform, publish and sell work and to offer a place for support and community. We aim to use the canvas of the outside world to educate and demystify the public on issues related to mental health and abuse.
