About Us
Our Mission
Arts & Culture Jamaica Inc.
Promoting the unique arts and culture of Jamaica
Arts and Culture Jamaica Inc. was incorporated in 1995, providing a forum for promoting the rich cultural and artistic heritage of Jamaica. The organization plays a pivotal role in showcasing the vibrant culture in Jamaica, supporting artists across dance, design, music, literature, art, storytelling, drama, and other cultural activities through various showcase events hosted throughout the year.
In its mission to uplift Jamaican culture, Arts and Culture Jamaica Inc. also supports talented young people of Jamaican heritage who are pursuing tertiary studies in the arts by providing crucial financial assistance. By promoting these gifted individuals, we highlight the positive accomplishments of Jamaican nationals and Canadians of Jamaican heritage, emphasizing their contribution to the arts and the broader community.
Operating under the auspices of the Jamaican Consulate General, the Committee remains a separate and independent entity with its own mandate. Our members include Canadians of Jamaican heritage, along with friends and supporters of Jamaica, who volunteer their time and skills to introduce and promote Jamaica’s rich cultural heritage to the Canadian community. We strive to encourage intercultural communication through the arts, reflecting the traditions of Jamaica.
Our objectives include:
Ø To showcase Jamaican arts and culture to Canadians and Jamaicans living in Canada.
Ø To provide a forum for promoting and publicizing the arts and culture of Jamaica.
Ø To support artists in dance, music, literature, theatre, and other cultural activities.
Ø To offer financial support to talented young people of Jamaican heritage pursuing tertiary studies in the arts.
Ø To encourage and demonstrate responsible citizenship by supporting the needs of the community.
Ø To integrate into Canada’s rich multicultural heritage and enhance the quality of life by exposing Jamaica’s culture to all other cultural groups.
Ø To promote pride in Jamaican culture among children and young people born in Canada of Jamaican heritage.
We encourage community involvement in identifying individuals who will benefit from our programs, whether through financial support for our projects, contributions to our scholarship fund, or the donation of goods and services.
