Vancouver begins removing the residential school memorial at VAG

“Given this unexpected development, we are working on next steps with our partners at the Nations and staff to bring this work to closure in a good way.”Earlier this week, Haida artist Tamara Bell, who the city of Vancouver had asked to remove the memorial, claimed the city had agreed to create a healing garden to replace the memorial.

“It is our fervent hope that the creation of this new park at the Vancouver Art Gallery contributes to a deeper appreciation of the need for healing, for hope, and for respect,” said Bell.Article content “No decisions have been made by the city or park board regarding the form or the location of such a space,” the city said, in an email, adding that they “will ensure that both the artist and the volunteers are invited to participate in these future conversations.”
