Heritage, culture, and life experience form the backbone of our work. We take pride in curating meaningful pieces that reflect this. Lineage Arts started as a space to support low-income BIPOC carvers, seamstresses, and artists. We provided free art materials and a safe space to work for artists and craftspeople to create, covering most of these expenses out of pocket. As our project grew, we supported those in the program by promoting their works.
From those humble beginnings, Lineage arts evolved into an innovative art space that now showcases contemporary and traditional art from Canadian and international Indigenous and visible-minority artists. Our gallery serves as a cultural meeting place that encourages creative collaboration and exchange between the public and Indigenous, as well as visible-minority artists from across Canada and the world.
Art is an experience, which is why we are excited to provide community-based, artist-led programming that shares diverse cultural skills and knowledge with the public, specifically collaborating with Canadian Indigenous artists and craftspeople. Indigenous Elders and Knowledge Keepers frequently support us to create holistic learning experiences for the public. This approach engages with Canadian Indigenous cultures in a way that is meaningful and respectful.
At our core, Lineage Arts is focused on catalyzing the role of art within the community through public learning and a participatory approach to art and design. We invite you to join our workshops, browse our collection, meet the brilliant artists we support, and, maybe, expand the diversity of your own art collections.
