Without a fixed location, we are able to build community across a number of sites and through partnerships. Our programming is extensive in its multiple forms. We situate our work in a sense of community developed through exhibitions, workshops, book launches, readings and more.Massy Arts seeks to galvanize community spirit by providing a space where readers, writers, and artists can come together.We acknowledge we operate on the traditional, ancestral, unceded, and occupied territory of the xʷməθkʷəy̓əm (Musqueam), Sḵwx̱wú7mesh (Squamish), and sel̓íl̓witulh (Tsleil-Waututh) Nations.
