Federal Liberal costed platform includes a proposed $70M lift for "Supporting artists and creators". No mention of artists/creators in the NDP costed platform.

Just saw Shamel Pitts and their dance interpretation of Afro Futurism at the McPherson Playhouse. This is experimental performance art at its best.

Dancers of Damelahamid played at the McPherson Playhouse to a Sold Out crowd. The integration of dance, regalia, soundscape and video art was stunning.

Mandate letters have been posted for BC ministries. Not much for the arts. Looks like the Fairs and Festivals grants program will continue and maybe some infrastructure support for "arts and cultural centres". No increase for BC Arts Council nor CreativeBC.
