Tales from the West End: Creating community with stories

‘Tales from the West End’ is an invitation to explore and experience the community through stories about the common past of its community members. The JJBean coffee shop is located in the original Maxine’s Hideaway, a West End landmark with many tales hidden in its walls, including illicit activities that add to the colourful folklore of the West End.

This is an opportunity to visit this renovated historic building, hear stories and tell your stories about the West End. Come and meet your neighbours and explore ideas to create community around the stories that contributed to creating our neighbourhood.

Event is FREE, no registration required.

This is an ongoing event, the third Tuesday of every month.

Made possible by the Heritage Vancouver Society, Gordon Neighbourhood House, the Greenest City Fund, JJBean and WEArts.
