You are invited to attend the pop-up exhibitions organized by the students in CCST 501: Seminar in Contemporary Contextual Issues for Museums and Curatorial Practice, taught by Nikki Georgopulos, to be held on Tuesday, April 9 from 10:15 a.m. to 12:30 p.m. in the Dodson Room (302) of the Irving K. Barber Learning Centre. The curatorial teams will deliver gallery talks on their exhibitions, which draw from the UBC Rare Books and Special Collections holdings.

Come by any time during the pop-up hours! The gallery talks will be ongoing, but you are also free to take in the exhibitions at your leisure. Exhibition themes range from Vancouver’s Chinatown and its culinary heritage; the history of medical illustrations and the figuration of the female body from the 16th to 19th centuries; travel, diaspora, and forced migration in and out of British Columbia; and the social and environmental legacies of settlement in the Pacific Northwest.
