Our hearts are full after a wonderful night of networking to celebrate our 10 Year Anniversary!
Alongside our staff and board, association members, government representatives, and creatives of all kinds explored Saskatchewan's six creative sectors through interactive booths. We enjoyed incredible appetizers created by Z+F Catering, were surrounded by festive balloon sculptures by Balloon Bar YQR, serenaded by Zochi, and read to by Counios & Gane. Our gracious emcee, Mike MacNaughton, led us through the evening of entertainment including an exclusive trailer reel of some recently funded productions.
This all couldn't have happened without the behind-the-scenes work done by Pro AV, and the thoughtful planning by Creative Concept events for the months leading up to this event.
Thank you to everyone who was a part of this special day, we look forward to many years to come!

Creators and publishers have waited over a decade to be fairly compensated for educational copying in Canada outside of Quebec. Think that's wrong? Take action here: ivaluecanadianstories.ca/cre…
