Connection Salon started at the Lost+Found Cafe at 33 West Hastings, Vancouver in the fall of 2018. In 2021 the Cafe has closed so we have been looking for a new location. At the beginning of 2023 we held our first show at The Gathering Place Community Center at 609 Helmcken Street and our activities continue there. This space is aimed at being a low barrier exhibition space committed to exhibiting underrepresented artists and artists with lived experience with mental health .
