Black Canadian Women in Action Society: Black Girls Empowerment by Art & Culture (2020 Project Grant Amount: $20,870)

The project from BCW will allow visible minority girls to gain exposure, social participation and historical awareness of art and culture that builds the city of Edmonton. The girls engage through two pillars: Self- Image and Empowerment. They have a safe space to communicate with each other about the Edmonton’s heritage; they have the opportunity to explore and learn the history of Canadian culture. With trips in the city and its attractions, the girls take ownership of their city and learn more about Edmonton’s heritage.
