BACKGROUND

Cultural Resilience: Using Innovation to Stabilize in times of Crisis is a multi-phase project led by the Creative City Network of Canada in partnership with the Cultural Human Resources Council (CHRC), Les Arts et la Ville, and the Canadian Commission for UNESCO. In Phase One, Hill Strategies Research collected over 200 stories of INNOVATION & RESILIENCE IN CANADA’S CULTURALSECTOR in the time of COVID-19 and identified 12 key innovative themes that could be applied to reinforce the stability of arts and culture organizations in future challenges.

Phase Two of the project introduces professional training tools developed specifically for arts and cultural organizations in a Canada-wide tour. This summer and fall, CHRC Executive Director Grégoire Gagnon will lead interactive workshops on how the learnings from over 200 stories could apply to your organization’s future planning.

Please RSVP by February 28, 2023 and indicate the number of representatives you will be sending. Space is limited.
