Richmond Stories: Story of Steveston

Accès

À propos

The village of Steveston has a storied past. It is home to a historically diverse community that worked in the fishing fleets, canneries and boat building industry. While the village found new ways to thrive after the decline of the fishing industry, it has not lost its connection to it. The Steveston Harbour remains home to more than 500 commercial fishing vessels, making it the largest small craft harbour in Canada.

Richmond Stories is a collection of 10 short videos that bring Richmond's history to life through storytelling, archival photos, and modern videography.

Richmond Museum

The Richmond Museum is operated collaboratively by the Richmond Museum Society and City of Richmond. The Museum’s vision is to make the history of Richmond relevant, engaging and accessible.

To support this vision, the Museum collects, documents, researches, preserves, exhibits and interprets objects of historical and cultural significance to the development and history of Richmond.

As storytellers, collectors and educators, our goal is to create moments of wonder and understanding. Our exhibitions tell the many fascinating stories of Richmond; our collections are windows into how we live, past and present; our education programs open minds, young and old; and our work inspires action for a healthy community and planet.
