The Banff Centre: Communications

Embassy (Ottawa): “In an effort to fill a gap in Canada’s public diplomacy strategy, a group of Canadian cultural leaders asked Heritage Minister Josée Verner yesterday for $150 million to establish an international institution to project its culture and identity onto the world stage…. Among those contributing to the proposal were the heads of the National Arts Centre, the Banff Centre for the Performing Arts, the Vancouver Opera, the Museum of Civilization and the Canadian Arts Summit.”
