活动
创意手作
Kick off the day with drop-in crafts celebrating our new exhibition Momentum: Power and Identity in Sports.
Create your own spirited Crafts that Cheer! By designing a felt banner flag or a foam finger featuring classic Cantonese and Mandarin cheers like 加油! (Add Oil!) or 好波! (Nice shot!).
电影放映
Join us for a powerful afternoon of storytelling that brings Chinese Canadian history to life through two moving films: The Girl with Big Feet and Gim: The Life and Legacy of a Chinese Canadian.
Following the screenings, hear from filmmakers Karin Lee and Daniel Chen about their approach to remembering history and community narratives.
In a deeply resonant tale of female emancipation and cultural adaptation, The Girl with Big Feet (Ts’ekooyaz Buke Ncha) explores self-determination and the painful choices immigrant families face as they navigate a new land. The film stands out not only for its poignant message but for its use of four languages—Dakelh (Southern Carrier), Chinook Jargon, Toisanese, and English—reflecting the complex multicultural reality of early settler life in British Columbia.
Set in 1800s Barkerville during the Gold Rush, The Girl with Big Feet follows seven-year-old Foo-Ling, a spirited Chinese girl whose joyful world in the forest with her First Nations friend Chilh is threatened by the arrival of a Chinese foot binder. As tradition collides with possibility, Foo-Ling must prove to her parents that her unbound feet are not a liability, but a strength in the new world.
Gim: The Life and Legacy of a Chinese Canadian traces the life of the late Second World War veteran and lifelong motorcyclist Gim Wong through his children’s memories. In 2005, Gim embarked on an extraordinary cross-country ride, at 82 years of age, to demand recognition and reconciliation for the Chinese Head Tax. Through candid conversations with Gim’s children, old photo scrapbooks, and a funky music video, the film paints a portrait of Gim Wong as an innovator, a family man, and ultimately a symbol of resilience in the face of systemic exclusion.
音乐表演
End your day with a special musical performance celebrating the timeless tunes in our feature exhibition, Dream Factory: Cantopop Mandopop 1980s-2000.
This electric performance by Sky Walker Choir Collective fuses pop medleys with layered choir harmonies for an unforgettable experience!
特邀嘉宾

Her award-winning films include Made in China, Incorrigible, and the web series Ruby’s Plan B.

Daniel Chen
Filmmaker
Daniel Chen 陈丹宁 explores themes of belonging, migration, and cultural identity through documentary storytelling. Having lived between Los Angeles, Beijing, and Vancouver, his work is shaped by shifting ideas of “home” and by innocent yet difficult questions from family relatives such as, “Which country do you like more — China or Canada?”
He has contributed to story-telling projects and exhibitions such as the A Seat at the Table, Paper Trail, and Becoming 雲起. Alongside his creative output, Daniel works on the heritage planning team at the City of Burnaby, most recently supporting the Apology for Historic Discrimination Against People of Chinese Descent.
