Churchill Creative Collective (CCC) Creative Hub Feasibility Study
View studyThis feasibility study shows that while some arts and cultural infrastructure exists in Churchill, it is incomplete and often not readily available or accessible, especially during the expanding tourism seasons.
There is a lack of infrastructure that would allow artists and makers to develop their artistic and creative work and connect with one another to develop a strong arts and creative sector in Churchill. Having a multifunctional creative hub would allow artists, performers, creatives and community members alike to gather and exchange ideas, inspire, and create, produce and share art together.
