Created in partnership with the Tombolo Pop-Up Children’s Art Gallery, this special edition book captures a space where imagination reigns and children’s creativity is celebrated. It’s as playful and full of life as the artwork that filled the gallery.
Inside, you’ll find:
A silly-putty unicorn, lava bombs, a moon island, potato guys, a world where anything is possible, and more!
A collection of over 200 pieces of art showcased during the pop-up gallery held in September 2025 in Vancouver
A meaningful keepsake for families, young artists, and anyone who believes in creative expression

Tombolo was created by local illustrator Anita Cheung and experiential designer Ryleah Resler, two friends turned collaborators who believe children’s art deserves its own stage. Together they bring to life a pop-up children’s gallery and storybook-style museum where kids’ imagination leads the way. Each year, Tombolo transforms a home or studio into a whimsical world filled with colour, creativity and artwork by children, a space where families, young artists and grown-ups reconnect with the magic of play and creative expression.
“Cheung is known for her whimsical illustrations, while Resler's knack for transforming spaces into sensory playgrounds makes the pair the ideal duo for building an art experience that’s equal parts gallery, playground, and daydream.”—Georgia Straight
“Extremely adorable”—Vancouver Magazine
“It’s an experience that sparks wonder at any age.”—YVR Magazine
“With Anita and Ryleah being incredible creatives themselves, this is a really special opportunity to bring a wider community of art lovers young and grown together. “—Vita Magazine
