Exhibits Now Showing on
our Main Floor
T’xwelátse:
We Have to Learn to Live
Together in a Good Way
This exhibit - based on the lesson by
Stone T’xwelátse: an ancient transformer
of the Stó:lō People - encourages visitors
to imagine what the meeting of different
world viewpoints might have been like
as thousands of newcomers gathered in
the Chilliwack area during the 1858 gold
rush.
New Exhibit
Launching in Fall
Our new exhibit, “Photography: From
Obscura to App,” opens September
22nd. Gain insight into the rich history
of photography! The exhibition will show
how the developments in photographic
processes and techniques have formed
how we photograph, what we photo-
graph, and how photography has shaped
our perception of the world we live in.
