Fundraising Spotlight ArtsCan Circle
ArtsCan Circle’s mission is to encourage self-expression and self-esteem in Indigenous and Inuit children and youth in remote northern communities in Canada through a cooperative exploration of the arts. ArtsCan Circle sends teams of artists to facilitate week-long creative art workshops. Children and youth are encouraged to find their voices and express themselves through their art.
So far, ArtsCan Circle has distributed 50,000 harmonicas in 16 northern communities, impacting 10,000 children.
Since 2018, DKG Canada has contributed almost $12,000 ($11,612.50) to our Canadian Project, ArtsCan Circle, to fund workshops in the far north. Due to the Covid-19 pandemic, in person workshops have been halted; however, online workshops are being offered at #ArtsCanConnects in music, creative writing, arts and crafts, and reaching out through inspirational and motivational talks by Indigenous leaders such as Buffy Sainte-Marie.
“These kids have lots to say, and we have lots to learn from them. Our job is simple: to inspire these kids and give them the tools to breathe in their world and breathe out their music.”
Testimonials
“Working as an administrator in education can be difficult and lonely at times. In DKG Quebec, I have found a community of amazing women who share many of my interests and concerns. I love the opportunities to learn and share but to also have some fun too.”
“If I could rate DKG Quebec an 11 / 10, I would. I love what they do, what they stand for and the supportive network they have created.”
“During my teaching career I found that the fellowship I experienced whilst a member of the society was most inspirational and motivating. Now as a retiree it is still most important to me.”
“I love to learn things I can take back into the class and use with students.”
Warm & Welcoming
The atmosphere is always warm and welcome. I came to a dinner and meeting one night and that’s when the second reason became clear. The speaker that night absolutely inspired me with her presentation on vision boarding. I love to learn new things.
A lot of fun!
Being a member is an enriching experience as it is combined with a high level of dedication to education. Very significant human relationships are built within this organization. Belonging to DKG is precious to me in my life.
