Lynn Chen

Sharing and promoting arts and culture has long been Lynn Chen’s passion. She believes that arts, culture and a strong community not only build identity but also help one to appreciate other people and the world in new ways, opening up space for deeper understanding and greater sensitivity.

As a co-founder of Cinevolution Media Arts Society in 2008, Lynn has funneled this passion into promoting intercultural engagement through film and media arts. After working as a Programmer and Designer for the organization over the years, Lynn assumed the role of Artistic Director from 2013-2016. While Lynn has transitioned her career towards Community Engagement and the Arts as a Program Coordinator at the Vancouver Art Gallery since 2014, she is also an experienced graphic designer, having graduated from Emily Carr University of Arts and Design where she majored in Communication studies.
