Join us on Tuesday, February 3, 2026, for the next edition of the Speaker Series, featuring new research on the economic and social impact of arts and culture in Canada.

This session will draw on Artworks: The Economic and Social Dividends from Canada’s Arts and Culture Sector and provide a first look at the Arts Vibrancy Index, a first-of-its-kind measure examining how arts and culture contribute to economic performance and community vitality across 22 Canadian Census Metropolitan Areas.
