NDG ARTS & CULTURE TABLE
The Table has a simple mandate: to promote the arts and celebrate the cultures of NDG. The Table actively supports members in their various projects including Porchfest, la Semaine des Arts, Opera in the Parc, the Sherbrooke Forest and NDG Art Hives, as well as Hip Hop You Don’t Stop (HHYDS). The Table also plays an essential role in helping develop and strengthen partnerships between organisations and resident-led initiatives with different levels of government, and with other key funders. Coordinated by the NDG Community Council.

PROJECTS
In its first 2 year, the Table has successfully: Mobilised more than 30 different organisations, groups, and active residents. Submitted a collective application to the MTL375 funding containing projects from 8 organisations and individuals. The NDG Community Council would be the fiduciary for these projects. Two of the projects within the collective submission for MTL375 have been approved so far. Supported several groups who were able to apply for MTL375 funding on their own. The theme of MTL375 is building bridges and the Table succeeded in doing just that. The Arts & Culture table is proud to be the fiduciary for projects such as Porchfest, the NDG ArtHive, as well as help resident initiatives take form such as: Les Ateliers d'histoire and Piste CyclArt. Hosted 2 dynamic and fun brainstorming sessions led by Percolab and the Art Hive Network that resulted in hundreds of ideas to make for one great and lively neighborhood.
