SUMMARY:The Polygon Gallery: Greg Girard
DESCRIPTION:The Polygon Gallery presents the first major institutional survey of Greg Girard\, one of Canada’s most influential contemporary photographers\, from July 10–Oct. 25\, 2026. The exhibition presents more than 160 photographs spanning the past half century\, including never-before-seen outtakes from his iconic photobooks\, and traces his evolution as an artist. The show unfolds chronologically beginning with some of the earliest images Girard took as a teenager in 1970s Vancouver. The exhibition then follows his footsteps as he traveled down the West Coast and beyond\, landing as a freelance journalist in Asia and contributing to publications like Time Magazine where he was oftentimes at the front line of civil unrest and conflict. Followers of Girard’s work will recognize images from the now-demolished Kowloon Walled City and Shanghai — and will discover that in addition to his urban landscapes\, he has a mastery of portraiture. The exhibition provides a sense of how he moved through the world\, and ends on his most recent photographs as he revisits the subject of the Lower Mainland\, with shots of North Vancouver and Surrey included. The exhibition will open simultaneously as the launch of his new publication Greg Girard – Photographs 1972–2026. \nAdmission to The Polygon Gallery is by donation\, courtesy of BMO Financial Group. \n101 Carrie Cates Court\, North Vancouver\, V7M 3J4\nGallery hours Wednesday\, 10am–5pm; Thursday\, 10am–9pm; Friday–Sunday\,\n10am–5pm \nImage: Greg Girard\, Camaro in Alley\, 1981

SUMMARY:Puccini’s Electrifying Tosca
DESCRIPTION:A story of power\, passion\, and betrayal\, propelled by one of Puccini’s most emotionally charged scores\, Tosca delivers opera at its most thrilling. The story unfolds over a breathless 24 hours\, as celebrated singer Floria Tosca finds herself caught between the man she loves\, and a ruthless chief of police determined to possess her. Love\, jealousy\, artistic freedom\, corruption\, and personal sacrifice collide as Tosca is forced into an increasingly impossible confrontation with Scarpia. \n“Tosca is the fifth-most-performed opera in the world\, and we are thrilled to have this Puccini blockbuster return to our stage for the first time in 13 years\,” says Tom Wright\, Vancouver Opera General Director. “Working with Pacific Opera Victoria allows us to open our 67th season with a newly imagined production of a masterpiece by one of opera’s greatest composers. From its explosive opening chords to some of the most recognizable and emotionally powerful music in the operatic repertoire\, Tosca moves with the intensity of a political thriller.”

SUMMARY:LOVE IS LOVE | George Littlechild
DESCRIPTION:Ashdale Gallery presents Love is Love\, an exhibition celebrating the extraordinary multi-decade career and visionary practice of Two-Spirit Plains Cree artist George Littlechild. \nLove is Love offers a powerful window into a lifetime dedicated to reclamation\, storytelling\, and visual resistance. A Sixties Scoop survivor who painstakingly scoured national archives to reclaim his roots. \nThis personal journey fuels his globally celebrated mixed-media practice. Exhibited internationally\, published as an award-winning author\, and recognized with multiple honorary doctorates\, Littlechild stands as an iconic figure at the pinnacle of his practice. \nArtist Statement\nThis exhibition marks a new chapter in my practice—a period of experimentation\, movement\, and renewed freedom. Moving away from relying primarily on acrylics\, I have embraced mixed media\, with crayons becoming an increasingly central element of my process. Crayons bring an immediacy and physicality to the surface that encourages spontaneity\, visible gesture\, and play. \n“I think of this body of work as an act of ‘jumping into a new chapter’ and\, at the same time\, ‘coming into one’s own identity.’ Identity is not fixed—it continues to unfold through experience\, memory\, place\, time\, and change.”\n– GEORGE LITTLECHILD \nRSVP for OCTOBER 17th \nArtist Talk 5pm\nOpening Reception 6-8pm
