Welcome to the autumn edition of Kerrisdale Insider.
Autumn brings crisp air and trees adorned with warm, colourful leaves; it also brings the return of familiar routines, comforting meals, and seasonal celebrations like Thanksgiving and Halloween. Students returning to school and university add to the energy in the village.
Mark your calendars for Kerrisdale Days on September 5 and 6. The weekend kicks off Friday night at dusk with an outdoor showing of Ferris Bueller’s Day Off at Elm Park — bring a blanket and enjoy a movie under the stars. Most festivities take place on Saturday, including sidewalk sales from local merchants, live music, pop-up performances, and free horse-and-carriage rides. Pop-up picnic tables will be set up on Yew Street at W. 41st, and at 3:00 p.m. the Kerrisdale Business Association will serve birthday cake from Moore’s Bakery to celebrate Kerrisdale’s 120th year.
This issue features Kerrisdale Skin Medical, where co-owners Pennie Ren and Brenda Fung
lead a skilled team providing non-invasive cosmetic services such as Botox, Ultherapy, laser rejuvenation, and medical-grade facials, all tailored through detailed skin analysis.
We highlight the Academy of Modern Art (AOMA), founded by Maggie Li, which offers small-group art classes, portfolio preparation, and university guidance for students of all ages. AOMA engages the community through annual student exhibitions and the Canada Youth Visual Art Contest, celebrating both local and international talent.
In other neighbourhood news, Dollarama has opened in the former Kerrisdale Lumber location, and Grandmama’s Café has new owners. The City of Vancouver is undertaking full width arterial road surface rehabilitation throughout the village.
Wishing you a wonderful autumn, and thank you for supporting our local shops and services — it’s what keeps Kerrisdale a thriving, welcoming place to live and visit.

KERRISDALE SKIN MEDICAL:
Consistent Care, Results and Connection
Article by Sarah Gordon, photos by Sandra Steier & submitted
Founded in 2008, Kerrisdale Skin Medical is a modern medical aesthetics clinic that has become a destination for clients seeking noninvasive cosmetic treatments.
Over the past sixteen years, the clinic has built a reputation as a caring space where every client is treated like family. Many have remained for over a decade, a true testament to their satisfaction.
Co-owner Pennie Ren is one of the driving forces behind the clinic’s continued success. Along with her business partner Brenda Fung, she has helped shape Kerrisdale Skin Medical into one of Vancouver’s top aesthetics clinics.
“We’re powered by a young, dynamic team passionate about medical aesthetics in a thriving and fast-evolving industry,” says Pennie. “Clients choose us for our personalized, one-on-one care, highly trained and certified professionals, and safe, natural-looking results.”
“The loyalty we’ve built reflects the consistency and trust we offer in every visit.”
The team includes medical professionals, nurses, certified skin therapists, and front desk coordinators who all share a commitment to excellence.
Dr. Eileen Fan, a licensed medical doctor, is known for her thoughtful, patient-centred
approach. She offers expert care while educating clients about treatments and skin health. Clients appreciate her honesty and professionalism. One shares, “I’ve visited many clinics, but none as professional and kind as Kerrisdale Skin Medical. The doctor took the time to explain everything patiently.”
Registered nurse Kevin Li, who previously specialized in burn and reconstructive surgery in China, brings years of experience in skin science research to his practice in Canada. One client remarks, “Kevin is hands down the best injector I’ve ever met. I fly from Alberta just to see him.”
The approximately 3,000 square-foot clinic includes eight rooms, six of which are dedicated treatment rooms featuring state-of-the-art technology.
Kerrisdale Skin Medical specializes in noninvasive and minimally invasive treatments designed to enhance natural beauty without surgery or long recovery periods. From Botox and dermal fillers to Ultherapy, laser rejuvenation, and medical-grade facials, each treatment is tailored to individual needs and goals.
Ultherapy is a client favourite. Using focused ultrasound technology, the treatment stimulates collagen deep within the skin, creating a natural lifting effect, especially around the jawline, neck, and face. It’s painless,
requires no recovery time, and produces visible results over time.
Botox remains one of the most popular services. It’s a quick and highly effective way to smooth fine lines and prevent deeper wrinkles.
“Clients love how subtle and natural the results look,” Pennie notes. “They still look like themselves, just more refreshed.”
Before any treatment, clients undergo a thorough skin analysis using professionalgrade scanning technology. Trained technicians assess everything from hydration and pigmentation levels to pore size, sensitivity, and signs of aging. This detailed insight allows the team to design highly personalized plans that ensure safe, measurable improvements.
Clients benefit in a variety of ways — achieving smoother, firmer skin; reducing wrinkles and fine lines; enhancing facial contours; and improving overall skin tone and texture. The results are natural-looking and long-lasting, offering a non-surgical option for those seeking rejuvenation. Key areas that can be
treated include the face, neck, jawline, eye area, and even parts of the body such as the arms, stomach, and thighs.
“We
love when clients
tell us they feel seen and supported, that they’re not just coming in for a treatment, but for an experience,” says Pennie.
“It’s quite common for friends to book treatments together,” Pennie adds. “We often welcome bridal parties who want to prepare their skin for the big day.”
While many of Kerrisdale Skin Medical’s clients
live in Kerrisdale, others travel from Alberta, Seattle, and across the Lower Mainland.
The clinic also sells SkinCeuticals, a highend medical-grade skincare line. Their consistent volume and expertise have earned them the brand’s Gold Award, a reflection of their dedication to both treatment and product knowledge.
For Pennie, Brenda, and their team, the most meaningful part of the job isn’t accolades, although being named one of Vancouver’s Top 5 Botox clinics is certainly worth celebrating; it’s the emotional impact they see every day.
Aesthetics isn’t just about beauty — it’s about self-care, confidence, and feeling good in your skin,” says Pennie. “At Kerrisdale Skin Medical, we don’t just offer treatments — we build longterm relationships with our clients and grow with them through every stage of life.”

ACADEMY OF MODERN ART: Where Artistic Futures Begin
Article by Sarah Gordon, photos submitted
Maggie Li founded the Academy of Modern Art (AOMA) in November 2016 with a bold vision for it to become Vancouver’s premier art preparatory academy. Over the past eight and a half years, AOMA has grown into a leading institution, with over 200 students enrolled annually, supported by a team of approximately 20 instructors and administrators.
Maggie knew that basing AOMA in this academic-oriented neighbourhood near UBC, with its excellent primary and secondary schools nearby, would be the ideal location for the academy. She was drawn to the corner location at West 41st Avenue and Balsam
Street, a spot that offered an abundance of natural light and an ideal layout for creative work.
AOMA’s instructors are carefully selected professionals with outstanding academic and industry credentials. The team includes university lecturers, international awardwinning artists, architects, animators, and art directors.
Maggie says, “Our team is dedicated to delivering a high standard of art education across all programs.”
“We’ve never believed in a one-size-fits-all approach,” she adds. “Every student is different, and we invest in helping them find their unique artistic path.” This individualized mentorship is at the heart of AOMA’s programs.
AOMA provides internationally high-standard art education, portfolio guidance, academic advising, and university preparation.
Whether through the Mini Arts Program— which prepares younger students for artfocused secondary school entrance exams—or the Portfolio Program, which pairs passionate young artists with expert mentors to guide them through university applications, the results speak for themselves. AOMA maintains a 100% admission rate to top universities, with many students receiving significant scholarships. Alumni have been accepted into renowned institutions across North America and Europe including Columbia, Princeton, Stanford, Yale, the University of the Arts London, UBC, Emily Carr, and more.
One of the school’s proudest accomplishments is the AOMA Certificate Program, an innovative visual arts curriculum designed for students aged 13 and up. Taught by local university faculty and professional artists, the program builds strong portfolios while nurturing deeper artistic development.
Class sizes are capped at eight students to ensure personalized instruction and meaningful feedback.
AOMA’s programs for adult learners continue to be among its most popular offerings. Led by internationally recognized artist Andrew McDermott, a Master Pastelist and former President of the Federation of Canadian Artists, adult classes welcome everyone from curious beginners to seasoned painters to
explore a wide range of media and styles, from landscape to abstraction, in a supportive and inspiring environment.
Each year, adult students are celebrated with a dedicated exhibition. At the same time, AOMA’s annual showcase in December fills the school with families, friends, and community members who come to admire the creative achievements of students of all ages. Maggie says, “It’s a warm and festive event where we showcase our students’ outstanding progress and creativity.”
AOMA’s reach extends beyond its classrooms through the Canada Youth Visual Art Contest (CYVAC), now in its fourth year. The 2025 contest received 616 submissions from 15 countries and regions.
“I deeply appreciate the importance of CYVAC as a platform that not only showcases the creativity of young artists worldwide but also encourages them to engage with social responsibility through their art,” says Maggie.
She adds, “Every year, we see more local students and organizations anticipating this event, and their support has been a key part of CYVAC’s development. We are privileged to work with an exceptional jury panel of internationally recognized artists, academic leaders, and admissions professionals who bring deep expertise and diverse perspectives to the judging process.”
The jury includes respected academics and admissions leaders from institutions such as UBC, SCI-Arc, ArtCenter College of Design, and the School of Visual Arts in New York.
The award ceremony will be held on September 13 at the Roundhouse Community Centre.
Everyone is warmly invited to attend and
celebrate these extraordinary young artists.
As fall approaches, AOMA is preparing for a new term. Many returning students have already secured their spots, and new registrations are welcome.
For Maggie, the reward lies in watching students grow—not just in technical skill, but in confidence, creativity, and ambition. “Every acceptance letter, every finished artwork, and every breakthrough moment in class makes all the effort worthwhile. It’s truly fulfilling to witness each student’s progress and personal growth.”
