Dear Community Members,

The Arrow Lakes District Arts Council Society is excited to announce that we are applying for the Columbia Basin Trust - Arts Basin Accessibility Grant. This grant will help us make the Bonnington Arts Centre at Nakusp Elementary School more welcoming and accessible for all.

Our project includes:
-Installing a ramp for easy entry into the building
-Adding railings for safety
-Improving lighting in the seating area

These upgrades will ensure that everyone—seniors, families, individuals with mobility challenges—can enjoy the arts in a safe and inclusive environment.

To strengthen our application, we need letters of support from community members who believe in making the arts accessible to all. Your voice matters!

Please email your letter of support to [email protected]. Even a few sentences about why accessibility and the arts matter to you will make a big difference.

Thank you for helping us create a space where everyone can experience the joy of the arts!

Warm regards,
Tania Quigley
Chair
Arrow Lakes District Arts Council Society
