VFC 22: Gear In-N-Out (Rooftop BBQ & Gear Sale)
Co-Hosted by Vancouver Freelance Creatives & GRAYN Media

Join us for a celebration of community and creativity! Two years ago, Vancouver Freelance Creatives started hosting monthly meetups to connect camera-based creatives. Now we're throwing a summer party to mark that milestone — and give gear a second home.
Whether you're looking to re-home equipment you've outgrown, score some used camera gear, or just hang with fellow creatives over food and drinks, this is the vibe.
Get your ticket by Sunday, June 7th to guarantee food. It will be first-come, first-serve for any ticket holders who purchase after this date.
