Fairacres Mansion, also called Ceperley House, was built in 1910 for an estimated C$150,000, making it the largest and most expensive house in Burnaby at the time. After owner Grace Ceperley's death it passed through private owners, was acquired by Benedictine monks in 1939 and became an abbey in 1953; the order left in 1954. In 1966 the Burnaby Art Society, led by Jack Hardman, Polly Svangtun, Sheila Kincaid and Winifred Denny, worked with the City to buy the 3.4-hectare site for C$166,000, and the gallery opened on June 10, 1967.
