An evening with author Catherine Clement

 

Join us for a LOOK at a part of B.C. history that has seldom been seen. From 1906-1949, Yucho Chow chronicled life during a tumultuous and transformative period.

Meghan MacIver was on the front lines of the European refugee crisis, assisting refugees fleeing violence and poverty who were arriving by the thousands on the Greek island of Lesbos.
