**Employer Profile**:
In the fall of 2021, the Vancouver Chinatown Foundation is opening the Chinatown
Storytelling Centre (CSC), a purpose-built space that celebrates stories of the
Chinese Canadian experience told through the lens of Vancouver’s Chinatown. The
Chinatown Storytelling Centre will be the first permanent space of its kind in Canada
with programming, exhibits, and interactive kiosks sharing personal stories and
featuring short films that provide opportunities to learn about people and places of
significance in Canadian history. The Storytelling Centre shares the important legacy
and history of the Chinese Canadian experience and its larger contribution to city and
nation-building. It brings together in one place, in the heart of Chinatown, the cultural
and historical artefacts, photos and records which tell this story.
Through community collaboration, the Storytelling Centre is a way to honour and
respect the sacrifices and hardship endured by previous generations. The Storytelling
Centre will also be the venue for important public events throughout the year including
dialogues, speaker series, and workshops addressing current social issues, anti-Asian
racism, and discrimination. Visitors will have both an opportunity to look back through
the Storytelling Centre’s permanent and temporary special exhibits and look forward as
we bring thoughtful dialogue opportunities to discuss the issues of today’s world.
The Chinatown Storytelling Centre will be a space to gain a fuller understanding of
Canadian history through an exploration of the Chinese experience and reflect on how
that legacy still impacts communities today. Community Conversations will be at the
centre of the Vancouver Chinatown Foundation’s efforts to address anti-Asian racism,
and community revitalization. We are uniquely positioned to bring together business
leaders, academics, the media and the community to have thoughtful and engaging
discussions. Our efforts will be local and national in scope and in addition to events held
in the Storytelling Centre, our livestream events will be offered to a wide audience
across the country.
