SUMMARY:Bleached by the Sun: Perspectives on Chinatown 《陽光下的褪色：關於華埠的觀點》
DESCRIPTION:Artists: Fred Herzog\, Kin Jung\, Karen Tam\, Betty Wong\, Jackie Wong\, and Charlotte Zhang \n\n\n\nEvent Image: Kin Jung working in the darkroom\, c. 1940s\, Courtesy of Nanaimo Archives and Nanaimo Museum \n\n\n\nBleached by the Sun: Perspectives on Chinatown\,《陽光下的褪色：關於華埠的觀點》\, is an exhibition that responds to the histories and legacies of Nanaimo’s former Chinatowns through artworks and photographs. Beginning in the 1860s\, Nanaimo had a succession of four Chinatowns. The third Chinatown was destroyed by fire in 1960\, which had a devastating effect on the community. The exhibition features the viewpoints of three artists who documented Nanaimo’s third Chinatown while it was still standing\, and three contemporary artists who respond to Nanaimo’s Chinatowns through textile installation\, painting and video\, and consider what it means to reflect on these lost sites from the present moment.

Experience the intoxicating power of Cyrano’s passionate verses as they ignite a romance\, all while he silently yearns.\n\nWill Roxane ever discover the true source of the poetic fire that has captured her heart? Prepare for a poignant and thrilling journey filled with dazzling wordplay\, breathtaking sword fights\, and a love story that transcends appearances.\n\nDon’t miss your chance to see this timeless masterpiece!
