As ArtBridges’ Community-Engaged Arts Directory grows, we realize that it’s a bit overwhelming to read through all of the profiles. We’re hoping that by occasionally highlighting some profiles on our blog, you may learn about an initiative that you may not have initially seen in the directory. Also, if you know of a Canadian community-engaged arts for social change initiative that isn’t in our directory, but should be, please let us know! We love and need your input/feedback in building this resource! -Lisa, Content Coordinator at Artbridges.
CANVAS Arts Action Programs in Toronto is a “youth-led grassroots organization that offers arts-based programming on gender, sexuality, consent and body image. Through engaging in different art-forms, including theatre, spoken word poetry and photography, youth develop creative tools to combat gender-based and sexual violence, homophobia, transphobia and negative body image.”
To learn more about CANVAS Arts Action Programs, please see their profile in ArtBridges’ Community-Engaged Arts Directory and Map.
