Celebrating the Indigenous Advisory Circle and Advancing Indigenous Protocols in the Visual Arts
CARFAC BC honours the Indigenous Advisory Circle, whose guidance shaped CARFAC National’s Indigenous Protocols for the Visual Arts. These protocols address intellectual property, cultural appropriation, and informed consent, supporting respectful collaboration and Indigenous sovereignty. CARFAC BC remains committed to advancing these practices and fostering equitable, culturally grounded spaces for Indigenous artists across the province.
Empowering Artists Through the CARFAC Public Art Toolkit
CARFAC National’s Public Art Toolkit supports artists navigating public art projects, offering guidance on proposals, contracts, intellectual property, budgeting, and collaboration with municipalities and stakeholders. By clarifying processes and reinforcing artist rights, the toolkit empowers creators at all levels. CARFAC BC champions this free resource to help artists thrive in public art.
