WESTERN FRONT – Support Western Front this Giving Season

Ten people crowd the back of a pickup truck wearing traditional Filipino garments. Eight figures have their hands up in rejoice while artist Bhenji Ra rests her head on her mentor's shoulder. This is the focal point of the image.

What a year to remember!

In 2024, Western Front presented three exhibitions and over thirty concerts, performances, readings, screenings, talks, and workshops. We also hosted eight artist-in-residence projects providing critical support to local, national, and international artists to develop and present major new work. Through our annual fundraiser Toque Craft Fair, we further profiled over fifty BC-based artists, craftspeople, and designers drawing record crowds in support of artist-run culture.

None of this would have been possible without our participating artists, audiences, staff, volunteers, partners, and donors. Thank you for making it such a memorable year filled with learning, inspiration, and joy.

If you’ve enjoyed events at Western Front this year, please consider making a donation this giving season. Your support today will ensure the sustainability and impact of our artistic program in the year to come. All donations will receive a charitable tax receipt and recognition on our support page.

Make a gift here.

We look forward to seeing you in 2025!
