We place great value on community engagement.

Through engagement with our partners, featuring curated destinations, our strategic marketing partnerships serve as a vital resource for highlighting the dynamic arts, culture and heritage in communities across BC.

We provide a platform.

We aim to connect culture seekers with culture makers in BC by providing freely distributed, high-quality printed guidebooks and an accompanying online counterpart, Art-BC.com. 

BC’S GUIDE TO ARTS & CULTURE stands as the only comprehensive guide of British Columbia’s diverse communities, curated for cultural exploration. 

With its clean design, compelling content, and conveniently portable format, our guide is akin to a well-loved pocket travel book tucked away in a glove box, or favourite travelbag.

Ensure your cultural organization is featured in your curated community in the 20th edition of BC’s Guide to Arts and Culture Print Guide, or to become an Art-BC.com member today, check out our membership page.
