Thank you for your support!

The BCMA would like to thank those who have generously supported us in 2022.

 

Donations aid us in continuing to provide programs, grants, and resources that support the arts, culture & heritage sector in BC. We have received an inspiring amount of support in 2022 which has allowed us to continue initiatives such as the Gender and Sexuality Inclusion Toolkit, the BC Museum Portraits Project, and build the Emergency Response and Recovery Fund. We could not have accomplished these initiatives without the support, involvement, and enthusiasm of our donors.

Museums and cultural institutions tell the stories and preserve the histories of an area, aiming to be representative of the local region and foster a strong sense of community. How does gender and sexual orientation inclusion align with these goals?
