Archives for the
month of SEPTEMBER, 2007


Special Exhibits

*Food for Thought: a history of dining on the delta *
*July 21^st – December 21^st , 2007*

What we eat, how it’s prepared and the way it’s presented at the table 
have all evolved over the last century. From the lavish Edwardian table, 
through war rationing, to the fondue pot of the 1960’s, this exhibit 
looks at the influences on food fashions and their resulting 
paraphernalia. Also included in this culinary exploration will be Delta 
specific ethnic traditions and regional specialties (like Boundary Bay 
crab salad!) Bon Appetit!
Main gallery exhibit.

Delta’s Main Street: Delta Street from 1890 to 1980

This exhibit tells the story of Delta Street from its heyday, as Delta’s 
commercial “Main Street” to the street’s decline and experience with

newspaper articles.
