THE ComeUNITY PROJECT
We gather to explore the ways Indigenous arts and culture can inform the rebuilding of our village on a foundation of care, respect and compassion.
Arts build empathic bridges.
 
THE PURPOSE
As Kukpi7 Fred Robbins of Esk'etemc states in his advocacy, the work of meaningful Reconciliation is not for Indigenous People to do.
As a settler organization, Community Arts Council initiates partnerships, dialogue and commitment to learn and change.
 
We are grateful to the BC Arts Council and Province of BC, and the City of Williams Lake and Cariboo Regional District via the Central Cariboo Arts and Culture Society for their ongoing funding support, especially of projects that support pathways to Truth and Reconciliation.
