The CC Awards primarily aims to recognize the (creative) talents and contributions of people of African, Black, Caribbean and Latin (ABCL) descent from Alberta To The World. The CCA will focus on recognizing the youth and changemakers within Alberta's creative communities.

We encourage the nominations of creatives who identify within ABCL and BIPOC communities. Equitable representation is at the core of what we do within La Connexional, and these awards will be given to those that demonstrate awareness and amplification of our communities. 🤎

Join us for a bespoke evening where you will get to enjoy food, socialize, dance and escape the cold while celebrating and rejoice in the beginning of 2023 🥳.
