Who is Metro Vancouver?
Metro Vancouver is a federation of 21 municipalities, one Electoral Area and one Treaty First Nation that collaboratively plans for and delivers regional-scale services. Its core services are drinking water, wastewater treatment and solid waste management. Metro Vancouver also regulates air quality, plans for urban growth, manages a regional parks system and provides affordable housing. The regional district is governed by a Board of Directors of elected officials from each local authority.
How will the calendar help arts organizations?
MAXguide is designed to help arts and culture organizations connect to broader audiences and other cultural groups by providing free promotion for events throughout the Metro Vancouver region. The calendar provides residents and visitors a cohesive picture of the events in the region with a goal to expanding people’s awareness and participation in the region’s rich cultural community.
