Welcome to a special community festival! Welcome to the Emily Carr Community Festival of the Arts and Ecology, a weaving together of art, culture and community. We are proud to honour the eco-cultural legacy of artist and author Emily Carr, as we celebrate local art, culture and heritage, UNESCO’s International Year of Planet Earth, and the Decade of Sustainable Development (2005-2014).
