The Firehall Arts Centre has been building community & highlighting diverse artists in #Vancouver since 1982. They are badly in need of building upgrades to address #accessibility & infrastructure issues, and be able to continue their good work for decades to come. Next week... 1/3


... Next week #Vancouver Council votes on mid-term adjustments to our 2023-26 Capital Plan. I will be moving to direct $7M in capital funding to the Firehall Theatre’s Accessibility Upgrade. This investment will allow Firehall Arts Centre to build on its history and ensure... 2/3

... ensure its patrons & creative workers can continue contribute to communities in #Chinatown, #Gastown, #Strathcona, the #DTES, & across #Vancouver. The Firehall Arts Centre is a crucial, beloved cultural space. It should be welcoming & accessible to all, for generations to come.



Firehall Arts Centre pushes City for $7 million accessibility upgrade — Stir createastir.ca/articles/fireh… Firehall Arts Centre City of Vancouver

Before the lunch break I put forward an amendment to fund the Firehall Arts Centre accessibility upgrades! It’s 2024. This beloved city-owned arts space should be accessible to all. Council will discuss and vote on it at 1pm. #ArtsAndCulture #VanPoli


Well, this failed. Cllr Klassen and ABC Vancouver delayed it with a vague motion to “explore” funding these long overdue #accessibility upgrades in 2026-2029. 😩😭 So disappointing. Especially after Cllrs toured the space recently. Another failure of leadership. #VanPoli

Shame on Mike Klassen 麥嘉信 🇨🇦 & ABC Vancouver for failing to support the Firehall Arts Centre with necessary funds NOW. The FireHall Arts Centre is vital for local theatre & ABC again shows no support for accessibility & local arts. Thank you Pete Fry Adriane Carr & Christine Boyle for your advocacy

Today when Council receives Capital Plan Update, I’ll be moving this amendment to help ensure accessibility Firehall Arts Centre, but also importantly, an approach that will enable use and enjoyment of this valued arts and community asset for years to come. This creates a path for venue
