EVENTS
Living with Long COVID
Living with Long COVID is a photography exhibition co-produced and presented at the Museum of Vancouver, in collaboration with SFU Faculty of Health Sciences and the Post-COVID-19 Interdisciplinary Clinical Care Network (PC-ICCN). The exhibition presents photographs and reflections created by 46 Longhaulers (people living with Long COVID), offering an intimate perspective on their everyday challenges and resilience. Grounded in a community-based, participatory arts approach, the project connects patients, researchers, clinicians and museum professionals to advance public understanding and dialogue about Long COVID—working to reduce stigma, strengthen patient voices, and advocate for expanded recognition and support.(Museum of Vancouver, 1100 Chestnut Street, Vancouver, Oct. 4, 2025 - Mar. 22, 2026)
