The Mighty 90 Drive-in Theatre
A giant 1950s carbon-arc drive-in projector flickers to life with movie travelogues from the 1940s to the 1970s.
A fascinating and surprising look into BC's past.
Flickering images from a drive-in projector, a gathering of BC's best, brightest and quirkiest people, gripping stories of struggle, creativity and determination, survival, humour and strength. This is BC history as you've never seen it before. You'll glimpse forgotten footage of our collective past, uncover hidden secrets and surprising facts, and be inspired, amused and awed by the adventurers, visionaries and oddballs who have made our province what it is: a place where free spirits thrive.
Take your time and wander through this virtual exhibition. We guarantee you'll discover a province that's far richer and more fascinating than you ever imagined.
