Aboriginal Arts at The Banff Centre
The Banff Centre

Since its inception in 1993, the role of Aboriginal Arts programming at The Banff Centre has been to enhance opportunities for Aboriginal artists — writers, musicians, dancers and choreographers, visual and new media artists, and others — to research, conceive, and produce Aboriginal work with cultural integrity and artistic merit.
