Creative Communities in New Westminster

Connect With  BC’s Creative Communities:

“Curated Community is a celebration of the arts and culture in BC, hosted by a diverse mix of artists and business owners in a specific city”, explains founder Trudy Van Dop. “Art-BC Community Directory is committed to ‘training the spotlight’ on the arts, culture and heritage of the province.”

The BC Cultural Crawl provides the opportunity for residents and visitors alike to discover Creative Communities across British Columbia. It is our chance to see the province as a world class cultural tourism destination. Fostering pride in each Creative Community brings cultural uniqueness and displays the story of its heritage. Through partnerships and media sponsors, the BC Cultural Crawl generates local, national and international exposure for British Columbia’s artists, performers, heritage sites and Creative Communities.
