National Steering Committee

The Culture Days initiative has been championed from the very beginning by a bold, courageous group of volunteers driven by their conviction that arts and culture play an integral role in the livability, sustainability, and flourishing of Canadian communities. What began as an inkling, just an idea, a tiny flame, has deepened, developed, and is beginning to catch, we hope, like wildfire – none of which would have been possible without the foresight and tenacity of the National Steering Committee.
