Anastasia Koutalianos and Samantha Gambling, co-founders of the BC Tiny House Collective
BCTHC is a local volunteer initiative of over 1000 community-oriented individuals who are passionate about tiny living in BC. Together, they believe that tiny homes could fulfill the rising demand of affordable, urban living for the city’s rising population.
In addition to tiny house tours and entertainment, there will be a barn-raising of a 26-foot tiny house made from sustainable and reclaimed materials. The event is a great opportunity for citizens to learn more about tiny homes and how they can help address gentle densification and housing sustainability and affordability targets.
