“Raised in Chinatown” exhibit at the Chinatown Storytelling Centre

A team of 19 Langara College Design Formation students developed this exhibit as part of a collaboration with the Chinatown Storytelling Centre. “Raised in Chinatown” was created to explore and celebrate the lives of Chinese-Canadian youth growing up in Vancouver from the 1910s to the 1960s. The winner of an Entro Award for Placemaking Design from the Association of Registered Graphic Designers (RGD), the exhibit ran from January to June 2023 and included archival photos, costumes, and more.
