about

Artscan Circle is a creative bridge between Indigenous communities and Canada’s capacity for change. We invoke dialogue about the past, present and future we share through the restorative power of art.

Our programs are a canvas for Indigenous Youth and a model for co-creation under Truth and Reconciliation, Call to Action #83.

Our mission is ART DIPLOMACY. Simply put, we co-create safe spaces and creative stages where Indigenous Youth can thrive. Through art-based programming, we open pathways of opportunity for Indigenous Youth to access creativity and express themselves in healthy ways. In doing so, we aim to create empathy and inspire action that serves their rights, interests and futures.

What we do: We respond to the unique needs of each community with workshops and tools to bring art-based programs to life including music, visual, recording and performance art.

Due to the legacy of colonialism and with so many isolated communities lacking basic human needs, they serve an even deeper purpose as safe spaces for Indigenous youth to access support and collaborate with artists, educators, mentors and each other.

What people are saying

"The kids are so amazing in the face of really incredible challenges. Their art is accessible and it's powerful. Our job is simple: to inspire these kids and give them the tools to breathe in their world and breathe out their music."

Mike Stevens, ArtsCan Circle Founder
