The B.C. government has invested $10 million to establish the Chinese Canadian Museum – the first in Canada. This investment includes $2 million to complete the planning and development phase and $8 million for an endowment to provide ongoing support. The museum includes a provincial hub in Vancouver Chinatown, multiple regional hubs and spokes throughout B.C., and an online portal and digital experiences for historical locations throughout the province. The newly formed, independent, non-profit Chinese Canadian Museum Society of British Columbia will lead development and operate the museum. 221A’s Co-Founder and Executive Director, Brian McBay, serves on the inaugural board with 19 other members.
