Reviews
Exhibitions at the Museum of Vancouver have received a lot of press from media outlets such as the Vancouver Courier, the Georgia Straight, and the Globe and Mail. Yelpers give the museum an average of 3.5 stars: > * What I really like about this place is that it’s the only real place to see the history of Vancouver. They lay out the entire history of this city with actual photos and replica models of how the city was at a specific time. – Mike O., Yelp

About Museum of Vancouver
The Museum of Vancouver (MOV) connects Vancouverites to the city and to the world. MOV is dedicated to encouraging a deeper understanding of Vancouver through stories, objects and shared experiences using interactive exhibitions and programs that explore the city’s past, present and future.
Featured Exhibition, City on Edge: A Century of Vancouver Activism, is a photo-based exhibition exploring how protest demonstrations have shaped Vancouver’s identity. The exhibition is a unique opportunity to access rarely seen images capturing epic moments of Vancouver’s protest history from the Vancouver Sun and The Province newspapers’ photo collection. These photographs are exceptional historical records of intense and transformative moments in the lives of Vancouverites. The Unbelievable exhibition, in collaboration with HCMA Architecture + Design, features contested objects, storied replicas and iconic artifacts for a mind-bending exploration of the role stories play in defining community.
