[BCMA] Key Takeaways from Budget 2025 For Arts, Culture, and Heritage Organizations

[Moderated BCMA subscriber listserv]

Hello all,

The BCMA has reviewed the documents published yesterday as part of BC
Budget 2025 and has distilled this information into 5 key points for arts,
culture, and heritage organizations.

Even though there is very little announced that represents new funding or
government policy that supports the arts, culture, and heritage sector,
there are also no significant reductions in funding. Given the current
economic uncertainty, the maintenance of current funding levels is not the
worst potential outcome - however in order for our sector to thrive and
better support our communities, a new provincial cultural strategy is
needed.

The post is now available on our website:

All the best,

Ryan
