Dreaming Hand-in-Hand Zine Launch

On Thu, Mar 24th from 5-8PM, join Massy Arts Society and Yarrow Intergenerational Society for Justice for the in-person launch and exhibition of our community zine: “Dreaming Hand-in-Hand: An Intergenerational Chinatown Zine”. This self-published zine is a collection of collages created by Chinese youth and seniors depicting their hopes and dreams for Chinatown.



At the event, the original works featured in the zine will be exhibited and the zine will be available for purchase. Please bring cash. The contributing youth and senior artists will be in attendance.


The event will be hosted at the Massy Arts Gallery, at 23 East Pender Street in Chinatown, Vancouver. The zine launch and exhibition is free + open to all of our community, and registration is mandatory. Each visit is limited to 50 minutes, and the capacity limit per hour is 35 people.


COVID Safety Protocols: For all in-person events, attendees must provide proof of vaccination, wear a mask (N95 masks are encouraged and recommended as they offer the best protection), and consent to having their temperature checked at the front door.
