Arts and Cultural Projects in Rural and Remote Canada: A Review of Canada Council Support
The Canada Council for the Arts is pleased to submit this report on its activities in rural and remote parts of Canada to the Standing Committee on Canadian Heritage. Since its creation in 1957, the Council has assisted many thousands of individual artists and creators as well as arts organizations throughout Canada. In the past decade, there has been a new focus on outreach initiatives to rural and remote communities, as well as to culturally diverse communities that have been under-served in the past.
