A National Celebration of Arts, Culture and Heritage
Every Fall, millions of people across Canada attend thousands of free, participatory events hosted by artists, cultural organizations, institutions, and municipalities in communities across the country—these events serve to showcase the importance of arts and culture in our communities year-round.
During the year, Culture Days connects thousands of arts and culture organizers, professionals, and enthusiasts through a vital network committed to supporting increased cultural engagement in Canada.
Mission
Culture Days aims to:
- FOSTER appreciation and support of the artistic and cultural life that is lived, created and expressed across the country in urban, suburban and rural areas alike;
- PROMOTE direct interaction between creators and citizens, as a key to increasing understanding and appreciation of art and culture; and
- AFFIRM that every citizen is the guardian of the cultural life of his, her or their community.
As a registered charity, the national Culture Days organization serves as a year-round catalyst that connects individuals and creators to build measurable support for the entire sector and amplify its contributions. We seek to eliminate barriers to access and participation, and stimulate understanding, appreciation and exploration of arts and culture—so that every person in the country has a deeper connection with themselves, their communities, and Canada. Your generous support allows us to do this vital work.
"People who had never participated in the arts before found it exciting and rewarding, finding a side of themselves they did not think existed. To us, that is what Culture Days is all about." -Pam MacKenzie, Consolidated Artist Group of 7s (North Bay, ON)
"To see our community come together in celebration of the various cultures was a dream come true for me. To have each and every aspect of our community presented, and enjoyed was so rewarding." -Anne Wilson, Elbow & District Museum, Saskatchewan
