Canada Council for the Arts

The arts and their contributions are crucial to society—they stimulate the economy and foster social cohesion and Canadian unity. They promote our values and improve everyone’s health and well-being.

Culture and the arts strengthen people’s sense of belonging and community by establishing social ties and creating an inclusive environment while stimulating creativity.

The Canada Council for the Arts encourages public participation in the arts from coast to coast to coast, thereby contributing to the recognition of artists and arts organizations from Canada abroad. That’s why the Council is proud to support the 26th edition of the MUTEK Festival, which is not only a reflection of its community, but also a fantastic showcase for arts in Canada and around the world.
