Lester’s Army presents Disappearing Vancouver, the story of Vancouver’s cultural, architectural, and technological evolution as told by our oldest citizens. Presentations include a 15-minute psycho-geographical documentary, a series of print articles in the Lester’s Army Magazine and a podcast series to air online this fall. Each presentation will include interviews with seniors who have witnessed substantial changes in the physical and social history of Vancouver including WWII survivors, street artists, retired laypeople who worked in dead or dying industries and other regular individuals that make our city so extraordinary.

With support from the City of Vancouver’s 125th Anniversary Grants Program and the participation of the Government of Canada.
