Vancouver Heritage Foundation: created as a private, charitable organization in 1992 by the Mayor and Council of the City of Vancouver, who remain its honorary patrons until today. Under the direction of a private citizen Board of Directors, the Foundation assists with the conservation of Vancouver’s built heritage, in recognition of its public benefit.

Launched in February 2003, the Historical Vancouver True Colours palette is a unique guide to painting Vancouver heritage homes. The colour card can be purchased at Lower Mainland-area Benjamin Moore stores for $1.

Your purchase of a colour card at a Benjamin Moore retailer helps support the programs of the Vancouver Heritage Foundation.

The first colour card of its kind in Canada, this palette is based on research data gathered by the scraping and colour matching on over 50 Vancouver homes.

The results reflects the colour history of Vancouver.

The colour card features samples of various colour schemes put together for six different True Colours homes.
