Welcome
to the Columbia - Kootenay Cultural Alliance Website!
The Columbia
Kootenay Cultural Alliance (CKCA)
administers and manages the arts, culture and heritage
granting programs on behalf of the Columbia Basin Trust
(CBT).
|
|
All
funding programs delivered
by the CKCA are funded by
the
Columbia Basin Trust. |
On our site
you will find information on the annual
funding
programs for the Arts, Culture & Heritage funding
sector, contacts for your
local
arts councils in the Basin,
projects that have been funded by the CKCA through
the Columbia Basin Trust,
arts
events in the Basin, and the
on-line
art gallery showcasing the talents of local artists. |
The rich and
varied culture of the Columbia Basin fosters and
develops the quality of life,
 economic aspirations and
educational opportunities of the Basin's residents. A
key component of this living process is the active
involvement of the Basin's artistic and cultural
community.
The arts
provide a creative process for inspiring the people of
the Basin to understand and express their connections
with the history, ecology, resources and cultures of
their home, so as to take care of it wisely for the
future - this is central to the Alliance's vision for
the future. |
