  • Maw-Pemita'jik Qalipu'k
    Maw-pemita’jik Qalipu’k Pronunciation : [Mow bemmy daa jick ha lee boog] Meaning: The Caribou are travelling together Qalipu’s Monthly Newsletter January 2016 Warm Welcome at St. John’s Native Friendship Centre Following an early morning meeting in St. John’s, Chief Mitchell and Jonathan Strickland, Manager of the Qalipu Natural Resources Division, decided to spend some time visiting the St. John’s Native Friendship Centre before their flight back to the west coast. The visit and subsequent tour turned out to be an eye opener for both; they have returned home full of praise for the centre, and the many cultural, employment, recreation, business and health related programs and services that this place has to offer. The Native Friendship Centre started out with a group of volunteers, offering a few basics programs, in the late 1970’s. At that time, home-base was a small office at Memorial University. It wasn’t until 1983, that the St. John’s Native Friendship Centre was legally established as a non-profit organization. Since then the centre has opened its doors to include the non-native community, has expanded and outgrown several buildings, and has come to employ 20 full time permanent staff, along with many more volunteers. “We didn’t call ahead,” laughs Jonathan, “but, two of the centres lead staff (Natasha McDonald and Briannah Tulk) welcomed us in to their office for an overview of the centre and the work they do. After we chatted, they brought us around for a tour. It’s hard to believe how much is happening there.” Something that stuck with Jonathan was the hostel and community kitchen.

    Newfoundland and Labrador Arts Council Annual Report 2016-17 MESSAGE FROM THE CHAIR As Chair of the Board for the Newfoundland and Labrador Arts Council (NLAC), I am pleased to present its annual report for the fiscal year 2016-17. The annual report is submitted in accordance with the obligation as a category three entity under the Transparency and Accountability Act, prepared under the direction of the Board, which is accountable for the actual results reported. Sincerely, Stan Hill Chair 1 OVERVIEW Background The NLAC is a non-profit Crown Agency created in 1980 by the Arts Council Act. Its mission is to foster and promote the creation and enjoyment of the arts for the benefit of all Newfoundlanders and Labradorians. A volunteer board of 13 people appointed by government, reflecting regional representation of the province, governs the Council. Council members serve on a volunteer basis for a three-year term. There is five full-time staff (three male/ two female) employed by the Arts Council. As a Crown Agency, the NLAC operates at arm's-length from the Provincial Government. The primary function of the NLAC is to develop and administer grant programs for professional artists and arts organizations, community groups and schools. Currently the NLAC achieves this through seven funding programs: 1. Sustaining Program for Professional Arts Organizations 2. Annual Operating Program for Professional Arts Organizations 3. Professional Project Grants Program 4. Community Arts Program 5. Professional Artists’ Travel Fund 6. School Touring Program 7. ArtsSmarts The NLAC also initiates partnerships with the business community and other funding agencies; produces an annual arts awards show designed to honour the accomplishments of Newfoundland and Labrador artists; and manages the BMO Winterset Award, the Lawrence Jackson Writing Award and the Rhonda Payne Theatre Award.
