Film Screening
The film fest kicks off its 10th year of highlighting and honouring diverse filmmakers, playwrights and artists with a screening of Cory Bowles' critically beloved flick Black Cop—which follows the daily struggles of a Black member of the force ("Your community doesn’t trust you, your colleagues are wary of you, and everyone assumes you hate NWA," the synopsis explains).

Museums
An exploration and meditation on what family means, this exhibition promises to "celebrate Canadian identity by exploring families and family history, linking past to present and province to nation." Originally produced by the Royal BC Museum, it offers a collection of stories from early and contemporary families, those who came as immigrants and those who have always been here, while touching on themes of "belonging, growth and change, gatherings and generations." 902-425-7770
