Arts and culture exist in every riding in Canada. Every community has artists, audiences, festivals, performances, exhibitions, cultural traditions, creative businesses, and spaces where people gather. When elected officials experience that firsthand, they gain a better understanding of why federal investment in arts and culture matters.
Summer is one of the best times to connect with your Member of Parliament, and help them see how federal support for arts and culture strengthens communities in their own riding. This summer, help your MP experience arts and culture in their community.
Whether you are an independent artist, a board member, a volunteer, a cultural worker, or part of an arts organization, you have a role to play. You do not need to be a professional advocate. You simply need to share your story.
