Celebrate Archives Week with a pint during our traditional British style pub quiz. Questions will relate to our collections or BC History, but you don't have to be an expert in either to join in the fun! Bring a team or join a group when you arrive. The quiz will take place in Old Town in the Becoming BC Gallery.

Take in the sights and sounds of Christmas long ago. Visit the wood-cobbled streets lined with festive garlands and see the shops decked in seasonal finery.
