The late Vancouver architect Arthur Erickson was one of Canada’s most influential design minds. Known for championing the use of concrete as a building material and for playing with shadow and shape, Erickson designed many iconic Vancouver landmarks—including Robson Square, the Waterfall Building, and the newly-reopened Museum of Anthropology.

This summer, which marks the 100th anniversary of his birth, the City of Vancouver is celebrating the profound impact of his work with a year-long celebration.

Things kick off on June 14 (Erickson’s birthday), which is being officially recognized as Arthur Erickson Day in a City proclamation signed by Mayor Ken Sim.

Here are some of the things that have been planned so far.

To July 20

The West Vancouver Art Museum is hosting A Refuge: Arthur Erickson, an exhibition exploring the design of the Point Grey home Erickson lived in from 1957 to 2009.

To August 25

The Erickson House and Garden is hosting exclusive guided tours.

June 14 to June 18

Erickson on Film: A Centennial Celebration at the VIFF Centre will take a cinematic approach to observing Erickson’s work and inspirations.

July 7, 1pm to 6pm

AE100: Arthur Erickson Centennial Celebration at Robson Square will feature live music and dance performances inspired by Erickson’s travels.

July 10, 7pm to 10pm

The Polygon Gallery will host Site | Light | Cadence | Space: Arthur Erickson Revisited, a panel discussion featuring local designers who have been inspired by Erickson’s work.

Other events, the details of which are still in development, include the premiere of a new documentary film slated for November, an exhibition in Montreal, an immersive exhibition at Arthur Erickson Place on West Georgia, and a lecture series through the Arthur Erickson Foundation.
