Still Moon Arts Society inspires vibrant and connected communities by creating artistic experiences and nurturing a passion for nature.
We do so through our eco-arts and environmental stewardship programming in addition to our founding annual festival: the Renfrew Ravine Moon Festival.
Our belief in the power of artistic experiences to move and engage people guides us as we bring together art, environment, and community in East Vancouver, with specific focus on the Renfrew-Collingwood neighbourhood and Still Creek watershed
Since its inception in 2004, we have used art to raise awareness and bring about positive change by mobilizing the local community and government partners to restore the Renfrew Ravine from a neglected dumping ground to a place of wonder, natural beauty, and educational opportunities.
Our Vision:
A Still Creek neighbourhood where people live as part of a healthy ecosystem, and participate in a community where the arts thrive.
Our Mandate:
- To develop, engage and promote the creation of art from a diversity of disciplines;
- To promote and engage in activities that educate our communities, raise environmental awareness, and enhance and restore sustainable natural environments;
- To promote community engagement and participation in environmental and artistic projects; and
- To promote and engage in activities that link arts, community and environment.
