The Spirit of Alberta: Alberta's Cultural Policy
"Culture connects us to our communities, our province, and to the world. Our culture reflects who we are: what we value and consider beautiful, how we spend our leisure time, how we think about and treat each other, where we come from, and where we are going."

"Culture is increasingly acknowledged as a necessary element of a healthy and balanced society. Many studies indicate that participating in cultural activities helps reduce stress, promotes increased health and improves academic learning. A vibrant culture also gives our province an important advantage as we compete to attract and retain skilled workers and their families to our communities. And our communities are strengthened through cultural activity.
The Government of Alberta is proud of our province's unique and vibrant culture, and we want to see it continue to grow and flourish. To achieve this goal, we have developed the Spirit of Alberta - a cultural policy for our province. Launched in January 2008, this important policy provides a framework for decision-making related to the support, growth and development of culture as we move into our province's second century."
