Heritage Vancouver

Our mission is to provide educational programming and public commentary that explores the many layers of heritage in relation to urbanism.

We work with diverse communities on cultural projects that help the public get to know and better understand the pasts and identities of others.

We provide consultation on city planning based on culture and heritage.

A wide public understanding of how broad and relevant heritage is to everyone is our goal. Therefore, we amplify the voices of underrepresented communities and challenge traditional notions about heritage and its applications within an urban context.

Tom Carter - Art from Vancouver

Tom Carter, artist, in Vancouver, BC. His style reminds me of the old postcards, hand drawn looking with that sort of range of colours. I would call it muted, for lack of a better word. They look like something you could find (if you were lucky) in a thrift shop, a little time worn and dated but a treasure still.

I made screenshots of two of his set of Christmas cards, posted to Facebook, this year. I am far too late to order a set of cards. If I can afford a set, they would be great for next year.
