SUMMARY:Canoe Cultures - Canoe Carving Demonstrations
DESCRIPTION:Canoe Cultures is a local community organization that celebrates resiliency by bringing forth the War Canoe as a vessel which carries gifts forward for future generations.  Carvers from Squamish and Snuneymuxw First Nations honour the strong cultural connection the canoe has to the lands and the waters.  Carvers will be working on their newest design\, a cedar strip 6-person war canoe. They will also be working on paddles and other associated artwork. The experience of crafting a dugout from a massive single red cedar log or red cedar strip is a rare opportunity as there are few canoe carvers left in Canada to pass the knowledge on to their communities. As part of the Canoe Culture Program\, Lead Carver Mike Billy Sr. addresses the cultural transmission of Indigenous knowledge from one generation to the next.

SUMMARY:Vessels - Art of the Feminine
DESCRIPTION:Vessels – Art of the Feminine is a textile project that explores the female form as a vessel\, symbolizing both strength and societal expectations placed on women’s bodies. Through sculptural stitched vessels\, similar to ancient ceramic pots and urns\, the work critiques the pressures of conformity and the historical framing of women’s identities. Each piece is crafted using repurposed materials\, intricate stitching\, hand dyed fabric\, and advanced surface design techniques that integrate traditional and contemporary motifs\, symbols\, and text that reflect the societal pressures experienced by women throughout various stages of life. By contrasting these historical forms with modern representations of women’s experiences\, the project addresses contemporary issues such as gender expression\, personal and physical autonomy\, and women’s empowerment.

SUMMARY:Citizen of Craft Award
DESCRIPTION:People who physically make objects understand that the making is only one aspect of creating culture: we need admirers and friends who are knowledgeable and thoughtful in their reception of our work\, and who champion its grand diversity. This award is specifically for someone who is not a professional craft artist\, but without whom the craft community would be sorely diminished. This year CCBC invites all regional & community arts councils\, craft organizations and artists to nominate an individual that has made a significant impact in their community for craft and the artists who create it. The award winner will receive a one-of-a-kind work of craft which will be presented at the CCBC AGM TBA in Vancouver. CCBC will provide transportation and accommodation as needed.
