About this event

With the 2026 provincial election just days away, join MOV CEO Ryan Hunt for a final Austerity Tour that reflects on the critical role that the Government of BC plays in supporting the vibrancy of cultural institutions and explore why arts, culture and heritage issues should be on the minds of every voter this fall.

The MOV’s Austerity Tours will highlight the problems, risks and missed opportunities museums typically hide from view: buckets that catch leaks, the oldest continuously operating freezer in Vancouver, a vintage iPod used to power exhibitions, and, depending on the weather, a hallway filled with ants. The aim is to make voters understand the risks austerity pose to irreplaceable cultural heritage—which is why they’re offered during the 2026 election period.

In addition to hidden buckets and 20-year-old iPods, the Austerity Tour will include:
