The Black Artist Network of Nova Scotia

Description

The Black Artists Network of Nova Scotia (BANNS) was founded in 1991. It is a non-profit, multi-disciplinary arts association that seeks to develop the African Nova Scotian arts community. Increased representation of African Nova Scotian artistry in Nova Scotia and Canada's mainstream public arts and cultural institutions, programming and collections is one of our major goals. BANNS also works with African Nova Scotian communities around the province to document and present their art and culture stories and to initiate important community arts projects.
