About

Centre A is pleased to present TO|FROM BC Electric Railway 100 Years, a group exhibition celebrating the historic BC Electric Railway (BCER) building’s centennial anniversary, the current home of Centre A. Sitting below the six-story Second Empire Renaissance styled building, the early 1900s saw the BCER terminal blossom into a bustling interurban railway station. Addressing the building’s importance to the collective memory of Vancouver, six contemporary artists, Raymond Boisjoly, Stan Douglas, Ali Kazimi,Vanessa Kwan, Evan Lee and Cindy Mochizuki will draw on the site and the neighborhood’s expansive history to consider the building’s significance as a cosmopolitan centre for new immigrants.
