Places that Matter Community Fair 2025
February 23 @ 11:00 am - 3:00 pm
Join VHF for the 8th Annual Places That Matter Community Celebration! For Heritage Week 2025, we are continuing to imagine fostering community connections and building conversation through a Community Fair.
Join us from 11 am to 3pm on Sunday, February 23rd at Heritage Hall for a community fair with table displays, items for sale, and crafts. Learn about the many stories and people that connect us to the places that matter in our communities.
Places that Matter launched with a plaque project in 2011 to recognize community-nominated sites that highlight some of the lesser-known people, places and events that have shaped Vancouver. A decade later, with 94 plaques installed, the online Community History Resource continues to grow with community contributions of personal stories and photographs for 125 sites.
