Since opening in December 2021, MONOVA: Museum of North Vancouver has been engaging the community by exploring the past, present and future of North Vancouver and its people. And soon, it will connect with the community in new ways with the opening of its Feature Exhibit Gallery.
Opening December 8, 2022, MONOVA’s newest feature exhibition, You Are Here @ The Shipyards, invites visitors to imagine the area around the Museum in its earliest days as North Vancouver – on the site of the Sḵwx̱wú7mesh Úxwumixw (Squamish Nation) village of Eslhá7an – and follow its evolution as a vibrant waterfront community.

North Van Arts’ famous Art Rental show will be on display from January 13 to February 11, 2023! This salon-style exhibition will represent brilliant works by local artists in many techniques, such as woodcut prints, lithography, photography, oil, acrylic, watercolour, and mixed media, to express themselves through the magic of art. 195 new artworks have been added to the Art Rental Programme, with pieces ranging from 8″ x10″ to 48″ x48″ in size.

The title of the work is taken from the Pope’s penitential speech in which he recognized the importance of remembering the devastating impacts of the residential school system. Belmore co-opts his phrase “hacer memoria,” or “try to remember,” by highlighting the challenges of not forgetting. In colours that carry significance – blue for the uniforms that students wore and orange to mark the resilience of survivors – the provocative artwork offers an opportunity to acknowledge Indigenous people. Invoking the word “hereafter,” the artist places emphasis on the troubled present and unknown futures.
