In recent years, there has been an explosion of interest in the creative community’s role in driving growth, change, transformation, and the new economy. Artscape has harnessed this interest by sharing its knowledge with communities across Canada and around the world.

Many artists and communities struggle with the challenge of translating this new interest in creative cities and economies into beneficial strategies. Both an arts practitioner and a learning organization, Artscape has married street level awareness with groundbreaking research and international connections – the result is our unique knowledge of creative urban development.

We exchange that knowledge with others via workshops, conferences, speaking engagements, research initiatives, reports, publications, online resources, and our consulting practice.
