St. Paul's Hospital goes Beyond Barriers


Award-winning Canadian photojournalists capture the heartbreak of life on Vancouver’s Downtown Eastside in Beyond Barriers: Photographs from the Frontlines of Health. Sponsored by Providence Health Care and AstraZeneca Canada, the photos, shown for the first time in Canada, celebrate the compassion of health care practitioners in street clinics, community health centres, inner city hospitals, mobile outreach units, solo rural practices, and remote outposts. The exhibit opened on Sept. 30 on the rooftop garden of St. Paul’s Hospital, 1081 Burrard Street and will show until Sunday, Oct. 18. After moving to UBC, it will tour across Canada over the next two years.
