Join us for Banquet of Stories 2025: Roots & Routes: Migration Stories, an afternoon of storytelling, food and community connection that celebrates the journeys that have shaped our shared Pacific histories.

Hosted by the Pacific Canada Heritage Centre – Museum of Migration (PCHC-MoM), this annual signature event brings together community members to share powerful stories of migration, belonging and identity. Through spoken word, performance and conversation, we’ll explore how roots and routes intertwine—how people find home, adapt and contribute to the evolving story of Canada’s Pacific corridor.

In partnership with the Museum of Vancouver, we continue to highlight diverse migration stories that deepen our collective understanding of place and belonging.

This project has received financial support from the Government of Canada. Learn More About Our Funding.
