This is East Van Community Photography Project
Vancouver’s certainly not the only city that seems to like to split itself along east/west lines. Montreal and Toronto both do (I grew up in the East End of Toronto, and those West End Oakville kids definitely have an attitude.) West Seattle is separated by the bay from the areas of town I used to hang out in. The divide in Vancouver seems odder to me somehow: it’s such a physically small city and yet those west siders just can’t seem to make it past Cambie. It’s really too bad, because they’re missing out on some of the best parts of the city.
This is East Van is a community photography project that celebrates the awesomeness of East Vancouver. The project’s creative directors Erin Sinclair and Jason Uglancia feel that something special is happening in East Van, and they want to capture its essence with the help of the community.
Yes, that means you.
This Is East Van is looking for photographs of what East Vancouver means to the people who live here. They want your photographs of the places you work, live and play in East Van. They’re not just looking for those blurry hipster photos you took with that Holga either: they want everything.
