About this Event
The Community-Based Research Centre (CBRC) and Health Initiative for Men (HIM) are proud to present an exhibition highlighting community connection, resistance, and strength through art.
Join us in celebrating this incredible work at our opening reception March 23rd 2026 6pm-9pm at at the BCA Sun Wah Centre at 268 Keefer Street, Vancouver BC.
RISE: Reach into Self-Expression showcases the work of 21 2S/LGBTQIA+ participants from the Fraser Region of BC, created through 11 arts-based workshops designed to foster reflection, dialogue, and collective care. Together, participants explored their own definitions and lived experiences of gender-based violence, transforming personal and shared stories into powerful visual expressions of resistance.
The exhibit weaves together research and art to illuminate both the realities of harm and the enduring strength of community. Each piece stands as an act of resistance; reclaiming voice, fostering connection, and imagining safer futures.
