Municipalities are playing a growing role in the development of arts, culture and heritage in Canada. The Creative City Network of Canada's main goal is to support our member municipalities so that they can be better equipped to carry out this type of work. And with a mandate to connect and educate our members, the best way that we can do this is to provide them with the resources and the tools they need to develop creative strategies for community cultural development.

By developing our own research, forging new partnerships, and expanding our reach, we hope to better serve our members so that in turn they can be more effective in their communities.
