We are thankful for funding for our indoor season from the Alberta Foundation for the Arts, and the Department of Canadian Heritage. (CAPF) We are thankful for additional funding for our outdoor season from the Town of Bassano and County of Newell.

Our Mission: Bassano Arts Council believes in the power of the performing arts to ignite the imagination, stimulate thought, provide enjoyment, and enhance our community members’ quality of life and well-being. Through diverse and equitable programming,  we strive to integrate the performing arts into the lives of people in Bassano and area.

Our Artistic Vision: Bassano Arts Council values diversity, equity and inclusion in the arts. Bassano Arts Council engages professional and emerging artists and connects people of all ages to the arts. All community citizens feel welcome and included, have access to the arts, value and participate in the arts, are respected for their ideas and opinions, and are enriched by the arts.

Our Venue:  The Bassano Community Hall  is at 610 – 2nd Ave in Bassano. It has four parking spots for people with disabilities directly in front of the doors, and is completely wheelchair accessible.

Acknowledgement: In the spirit of reconciliation, we acknowledge that we live, work and play on the traditional territories of the Blackfoot Confederacy (Siksika, Kainai, Piikani), as well as the Tsuut’ina First Nation , the Îyâxe Nakoda First Nation, the Métis and Inuit and all people whose footprints have marked these lands for generations.  

Annual financial assistance from the Alberta Foundation for the Arts, and Department of Canadian Heritage (CAPF) is gratefully received in order to make our concert series possible. We are also proud to be a member of the Arts Touring Alliance of Alberta.
