Across the country, local festivals are economic drivers in Canada's regions. They strengthen a feeling of belonging in their communities while giving the young and young-at-heart a chance to make the most of winter.
Today, Guillaume Deschênes-Thériault, Member of Parliament (Madawaska-Restigouche), is happy to announce $30,300 in funding for Campbellton Sno-Fest, on behalf of the Honourable Marc Miller, Minister of Canadian Identity and Culture and Minister responsible for Official Languages.
This financial support, through the Building Communities Through Arts and Heritage program, will help Sno-Fest flourish. This can't-miss cultural gathering brings the local community together for dynamic winter celebrations, which are part of Restigouche's identity. This investment will help Sno-Fest continue to grow and bring people together, while offering accessible, inclusive activities.
This support for events like Campbellton Sno-Fest is helping strengthen the vitality, pride and cultural identity in northern New Brunswick and throughout Canada.
