Join us for a guided tour of the Chinese Canadian Museum, co-hosted by the Chinese Canadian Museum and Francl Architecture. This special tour offers an inside look at the transformation of a historic heritage building into a contemporary cultural landmark.

Explore the museum’s unique architecture while learning about the design challenges, heritage preservation considerations, and collaborative process behind the project. Along the way, discover the history of the Wing Sang Building site and gain a deeper understanding of Chinese Canadian history, culture, and the museum’s role as a permanent cultural home for these stories.

The tour will highlight key design strategies, accessibility features, and technical solutions that shaped the building, while exploring how architecture and exhibition spaces work together to support the museum’s mission and visitor experience.

This is a unique opportunity to experience the building firsthand while engaging with both the museum and the architectural team who brought this award-winning project to life.

This program is presented in partnership with Francl Architecture as part of the Design Vancouver Festival.
