Dear friends, community partners and past members of ArtBridges!

We hope this post finds you well and into interesting and wonderful creative endeavors! This year, 2024, marks 15 years of ArtBridges’ work in providing a hub, resource, and service for community-engaged arts and arts for social change in Canada.
Our team celebrates this success and thanks you for contributing, collaborating, and being part of it!

We are proud of all the connections made, learnings in the field, service, and for helping to tell our stories and highlights. Looking back to our theory of change made in 2015, we aimed to achieve: “connections, knowledge, inspiration and a higher profile field by raising awareness, making connections, gathering and sharing resources and highlighting what’s going on.” While the work really never ends, we hope that our contribution to the field has been valuable.

The ArtBridges website: 2013-23 is fully archived on archive-it.org, search: ‘ArtBridges’. It’s also linked – click on the button on the top right of our new website. All resources are saved there if you need to search for something on our previous site.

Our new website launched in 2023 is up, but previous and archived content is not reflected on this new site.

At this point, we are taking a pause, as funding is tight, however we’re remaining available to our community for any questions or connection through email. Please reach us at info@artbridges.ca

We are also participating in monthly ASCN (Arts and Social Change Network) discussions to connect with other organizations in the field in Canada. Reach us if you’re interested in knowing more!

Thank you!
Seanna Connell on behalf of the ArtBridges team
