Report to Community

As a not-for-profit society, we publish an annual report to the community sharing program highlights, challenges, achievements, and providing a brief financial update. We invite you to read our 2022 Report to Community by clicking the link below. Here’s an excerpt from our 2022 Report.

Building Community Together

Gibsons Community Building Society is a non-profit organization, with amazing volunteer governance and support, dedicated to building a healthy, caring and thriving community.

In a world filled with uncertainty, the need to strengthen our sense of wellbeing by feeling part of a connected and caring community is even greater. We are proud of the role Gibsons Public Market plays in fostering a multi-faceted, welcoming hub—a place where people of all ages can gather.

More than 7,500 people including local families and visitors celebrated the return of our Summer Night Markets. And we continued our commitment to providing opportunities to connect with our talented coastal artists, musicians, chefs and entrepreneurs through our art displays, live music, Demo and Dine events, Food Truck Fridays, public market merchants and our seasonal market places.

We are inspired by the wonder and awe on the faces of children as they connect with the depth of biodiversity of Átl’ka7tsem | Howe Sound at the Nicholas Sonntag Marine Education Centre. They are learning to become
stewards of a healthy ocean at our unique collect-and-release aquarium, on our beaches and in our education programs and camps.

To our dedicated staff, donors, volunteers, funders, supporters, Board Members and all who live, work and play here — thank you! Together we are making a valued difference in our community.

VICKI RAW, Executive Director
PAM ROBERTSON, Board Chair

Meet our People

Our first contact with the Market was a tour offered by Georgy Good when the Market was nearing completion. We were impressed by the vision of the market as a community hub and a gathering place which could host a variety of activities.

I love seeing the regulars. The people who come in every week and enjoy a meal at Emelle’s and then head downstairs to pick up their groceries. It's nice to be that place where they can relax.

I quit my office job to live the dream and start a bakery. I never thought the best part of owning my own business would be the customers.

I love the energy and vibe of the Market and the quality of the merchants. The opportunity to finally start my own business and bring quality miso food to the community has been wonderful. I love working in such a vibrant place.

The three days our daughter spent at camp was the best three days of fun and education she has had in a while... I loved hearing the excitement in her voice.

It has been a fantastic experience having the Gibsons Public Market host our Black History Month annually. We are very grateful and recommend this great facility. Many, many thanks!
