A Walk-Through of Individual Experiences of You Are Here: Mapping the Future of Culture in Kamloops

August 15, 2022—The newest exhibit at Kamloops Museum and Archives is more than history, it’s about building a future.

You Are Here is a free space to share your vision for the cultural direction of the City of Kamloops. The interactive exhibition at the Kamloops Museum and Archives invites you to share your ideas in a guided research project led by the Researcher-in-Residence partnership—a joint initiative between Thompson Rivers University and the City. Centred on cultural mapping and featuring a range of ways to take part, the exhibit calls on you to participate and help build our community’s next landscape of culture. The data and vast mediums of participation that are collected will be analyzed by the researchers to help inform the City’s updated Cultural Strategic Plan.

There are several ways to participate—you choose your level of participation. One may describe the stages of participation in this exhibition as bronze, silver, and gold. Read the full story.
