Shows and Events

The Coquitlam Art Club has been invited by Mackin House to submit artworks honouring Coquitlams heritage.  The members will be submitting approximately 30 pieces of art.  The art works will be from old photos, artifacts and old existing structures, each with a brief description or story to tell.  This expansive interpretation of Coquitlams past will engage the audience in discussions about diversity and community change over time.

The show Coquitlam Heritage: A Mosaic of Our Past will be held at Place des Arts,  starting on February 16 to March 17, 2018
