Letter from the Executive Director, December 2022<\/h1>\n<\/div><\/section>\n

As we wind down 2022, I want to make sure that a few ELAN events and activities don\u2019t get lost in the holiday noise.\u00a0 We recently launched our new website and are really happy with the results, please check it out if you haven\u2019t already.\u00a0 Our\u00a0Qu\u00e9bec Relations<\/a>\u00a0team have also been hard at work updating their website so I strongly encourage everyone to check it out. If you aren\u2019t familiar with QR please take the time to have a look and learn about all the services offered (it can help you find funding money.\u00a0 Really.\u00a0 Go check it out).<\/p>\n

Also, if you don\u2019t already know about the recently launched\u00a0Community Digital Arts Hub<\/a>\u00a0(CDAH) it is a great resource for an artist of any discipline. CDAH and the team can help you get that audition tape done without your dog barking in the background, help you to create high-quality promotional material,\u00a0 or just give you access to an affordable, professional space to be able to record that podcast you are sure will be the next Serial.<\/p>\n

As for the ELAN team, we are going to take a well-deserved break and our offices are closed from December 19th and open on January 9th<\/sup>.\u00a0\u00a0 We will need our energy for all the exciting things we are planning for 2023 \u2013 stay tuned.<\/p>\n

Have an excellent holiday season.<\/p>\n

Vanessa<\/p>\n
