Please note: As recommended by BC’s provincial health officials, gatherings of any kind and unessential travel in the province is not recommended at this time. Please adhere to COVID-19 health and safety measures, including proper physical distancing and frequent hand washing, and wearing a mask or face-covering in public indoor and retail spaces. If you are sick, please stay home. 


A new art installation is lighting up downtown Vancouver in an effort to lift the city’s spirits.

Called BRIGHT Downtown, photos from the show’s inaugural night show bold animations dancing across the façade of the Fairmont Hotel Vancouver.

Put on by the Downtown Vancouver Business Improvement Association (DVBIA), the show explores “how art is intrinsically interwoven into every step of the human experience.”

The free instillation will run nightly until March 12, and can be seen from “šxʷƛ̓ənəq Xwtl’e7énk Square,” also known as the North Plaza of the Vancouver Art Gallery.
