The Kitimat Chinese Association was founded in 1985. Their purpose was to connect all Chinese Canadians in Kitimat, with the local people too. They encouraged the members involved in the community to show and share Chinese culture with the people in Kitimat. Like activities in Multicultural Day, Canada Day, Canada Cancer Society's Relay of Life, etc. Every year they had three gatherings, summer picnic, Christmas and Chinese New Year. The association disbanded in December 2008 as most of the members got older and retired.

Photograph of two young girls wearing matching outfits, with the same hair cut, sitting together and smiling for the photo. They look as though they are twin sisters. There is a sign being held around the girls that reads "Europa" on the top and, " Bremen" on the bottom. And the sign is shaped and made to look like a lifebuoy. In the background of this photograph they are some chairs laid out for people to sit in, a hand holding the sign, a man standing, and what looks like a powerline.
