Lived Histories & Experiences of the Chinese Community

縈繞中華文化: 華人社區歷史和生活展覽

萦绕中华文化: 华人社区历史和生活展览

On View at Aurora Town Square from January 13 — March 16

Home. Place. Belonging. Throughout Canadian history, people of Chinese descent have contributed to the development of our nation. They resisted and persevered, overcoming stereotypes, labels, and racist policies. Now, we commemorate and remember the contributions of Chinese Canadians over the past 100 years since the Chinese Exclusion Act. Explore, learn and listen to the stories, traditions, and knowledge of the diverse Chinese Canadian community from Markham and York Region through the exhibition, website, and our educational programs.

For all inquiries, email museum@aurora.ca  

Join us for the Opening Reception on Saturday, January 25 from 10 to 12 pm in Brevik Hall
