Cultural Services

In addition, we also partner with the Georgina Arts Centre and Gallery and the Georgina Public Libraries to extend program and services opportunities. 

What is culture?

The United Nations Educational, Scientific and Cultural Organization’s (UNESCO) defines culture as “the spiritual, material, intellectual and emotional features that characterize a society…not only the arts and letters, but also the modes of life…value systems, traditions…”

Culture can be described in terms of how it is expressed in activities and places associated with the following disciplines:

  • Performing arts
  • Communications media
  • Literary arts
  • Heritage
  • Electronic arts
  • Visual arts
  • Crafts
  • Civic arts
  • Festivals and events
  • Design arts

Culture is an important part of the community, and Georgina is home to many exciting cultural places and activities.
