Join us for a Tour of Cool Aid’s Downtown Community Centre, the latest of Herowork’s radical renovations!
About this event
Victoria Cool Aid Society has provided a variety of housing, shelter, support and health services to Victoria’s most vulnerable people since 1968.
Welcoming over 6,000 visitors every year, Cool Aid’s Downtown Community Centre (DCC) is the only space of its kind in the region, providing free programming to support the health and wellness of our city’s most vulnerable.
With support of community, HeroWork will re-envision the tired old DCC, transforming the building and breathing new life into this important community resource allowing it to serve more people, in a better way, for years and years to come. Elements include:
o Re-envisioned, more efficient main floor layout.
o Brand-new and expanded Kitchen.
o Creation of new multi-purpose space.
o Updated lighting, plumbing and HVAC.
o New accessible & gender-neutral washrooms.
o Construction of new exterior gathering place and landscaping redesign.
o New flooring, entrance, computer stations, and storage solutions.
o And so much more…
