The region that we serve: the Columbia Basin. (Click on the image to view a larger version.)
As the regional arts council for the Kootenays, we support a thriving arts, culture and heritage sector and act as a catalyst to build capacity throughout the creative ecology. By convening the cultural sector and offering a comprehensive suite of programs to strengthen the regional arts community, we look to a future where the Kootenay region is recognized for its world-class arts and culture.
We do this by assisting those involved in arts, culture and heritage so they can carry out their activities more effectively through support like training, consultation and communication about resources available throughout the region and province.

We manage the annual Columbia Basin Culture Tour, featuring the work of skilled and diverse regional artists and fascinating cultural and heritage sites. Since 2009, visitors from far and wide have enjoyed this event, self-directed and free of charge.
Grants from the Columbia Kootenay Cultural Alliance (CKCA)—funded by Columbia Basin Trust and managed by the West Kootenay Regional Arts Council—are available for all art disciplines, for both individuals and arts and culture organizations.
