Places that Matter Community Fair
February 25 @ 11:00 am - 3:00 pm
By donation
Join VHF for the 7th Annual Places That Matter Community Celebration! For Heritage Week 2024, we have reimagined the event as a Community Fair.
Join us from 11 am to 3pm on Sunday, February 25th at Heritage Hall for an all-ages community fair with door prizes, table displays, items for sale, crafts and scavenger hunt. 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 93 plaques installed, the online Community History Resource continues to grow with community contributions of personal stories and photographs for 125 sites.
This event is family-friendly and all are welcome to attend. By donation.
