Building for excellence, together.
The Encore campaign is a vision to build a purpose-designed music facility and reimagine existing spaces and classrooms at Vancouver College.
A decade ago, our community transformed vancouver college’s campus.
With Encore, we build on the vision of Our Next Century, creating a new facility where music, creativity, and whole-person education come alive. More than a building, Encore is a commitment to faith, character, and the arts—honoring past achievements while inspiring tomorrow’s leaders and extending a legacy of excellence for generations to come.
12,000 Square Feet of Possibility
This new facility is designed to inspire learning, creativity, and collaboration at every scale. From rehearsal rooms to recording studios, every corner will serve as a platform for growth.

Why Encore Matters
“This last phase of our Campus redevelopment – the music facility and related redevelopment – rounds out over a decade of building and giving back to this community that has given so much to all of us.”
Celia Courchene, Vice Chair & Secretary – Board of Directors
Why Encore Matters
“We believe in the transformative, connective, nature and power of music in all of its forms. It breaks down walls and builds, it inspires and moves us.”
Paul & Melissa Meehan, Honorary co-Chairs
Why Encore Matters
“As an active person, music always picks me up and energizes me. Song is such a powerful way for all of us to worship together, when we all know the familiar, uplifting tunes and lyrics”
Daryl Weaver, President
Why Encore Matters
“Music has taught me far more than how to read notes or play rhythms. It’s taught me how to work hard when things don’t come easily. It’s taught me discipline—how to manage my time, push through frustration, and keep showing up.”
