MOV | The Vancouver Quiz Show

March 24, 2016 @ 6:00 pm - 9:00 pm

$15

Grab a drink and test your knowledge of Vancouver’s most pressing issues.

Drawing upon the used and unused data and map materials developed for Vancouver’s Your Future Home exhibition at the Museum of Vancouver, this “quiz show” will test selected members of the audience about their knowledge on Vancouver’s housing affordability, urban density, transportation, and public space.

These questions evoke the central tenant of this exhibition and concerns about our city.  The past, present, and future challenges and opportunities developing and shaping the issues of affordability, livability, and sustainability will be present. While original and creative (if not totally accurate) answers are entertained from contestants, the show invites the audience to learn more about their City and the critical issues framing its future as a home for present and future generations of Vancouverites.

Date: Thursday, March 24

Time: Bar opens at 6pm; Quiz Show begins at 7pm.

Tickets:  $15 adults; $11 Students & Seniors; Free for MOV Members. Register here. Access to Your Future Home included with admission.

Andy Yan is the Data Curator of the Your Future Home: Creating the New Vancouver exhibition. He is the Acting Director for Simon Fraser University as well as an Urban Planner at Bing Thom Architects and a Researcher at BTAworks, BTA’s research and development division. In his off time, he is an adjunct professor at the University of British Columbia’s School of Community and Regional Planning.
