The Museum of Vancouver and the University of British Columbia proudly present A Seat at the Table: Chinese Immigration and British Columbia. This exhibition explores historical and contemporary stories of Chinese Canadians in BC and their struggles for belonging. It looks to food and restaurant culture as an entry point to feature stories that reveal the great diversity of immigrant experience and of the communities immigrants develop.

Shadow Buffet, an extension of A Seat at the Table and presented in partnership with Mere Phantoms is now on view!

Using food and restaurant culture as entry point, the central installation takes the form of a "shadow buffet". A series of round, plate-shaped paper food suspended from the ceiling just above eye level, hovering over a long white table. Each piece is top-lit so that its shadow – a collection of food items -- is cast onto the tabletop below. These paper cut-outs not only reference food, they connect to moments and places associated with the experience of eating.

Sister exhibition at the Chinese Canadian Museum of BC on view at the Hon Hsing Building in Vancouver Chinatown, 27 E Pender Street! Learn More.

Foncie's Corner, an evolving digital archive that started 8 years ago and currently hosts a collection of almost 4,000 photos by Foncie Pulice, is now managed by MOV!

Explore the current collection and add to it by submitting your photos. We encourage you to include personal stories from dramatic to mundane to joyous moments that when experienced together tell a larger story of life in British Columbia from the 1930s to the end of the 70s. There is cultural richness in Foncie’s photos and in the history they reveal in those flash moments on Granville Street in downtown Vancouver – over the course of almost half a century.
