MP Breakfast on State of the Arts: National Policy - Local Impact

MP Joyce Murray On Friday, September 28 MP Joyce Murray will be joined by speaker Rob Gloor, Executive Director for the Alliance for Arts and Culture, for the latest in a series of MP Breakfast Connections, State of the Arts: National Policy – Local Impact.

A thriving arts and culture sector is crucial to the character and well-being of our society – and is directly tied to economic vitality. In Vancouver, recent developments including the unfortunate closure of the Playhouse theatre have left many wondering about the future of Vancouver’s arts and culture community.

This MP Breakfast fittingly takes place on the first day of Culture Days, a national movement to increase awareness and engagement of the arts and cultural life in our communities. Join Joyce and Rob for an exploration of the current state of Vancouver’s arts and culture industry, and hear what we can do to help creative communities flourish in our city!
