What Overview 5 MASC’s overall artistic programming goals are consistent for all our audiences. Professional artists offer unique programming across all disciplines representing a wide range of diverse communities. Strong artistic programming is at the core of the work we do. In making programming decisions we consult with and respond to our communities as they express interest and needs important to them. We consider these priorities, curriculum focus, and feel it is also important to offer our audiences ‘unexpected’ experiences. In particular, there is an ever-growing interest in Indigenous culture which reflects MASC own aim to raise awareness and appreciation of these cultural groups in Canada.
