Are you a Listugujewaq artist/artisan? Listuguj Tourism is launching this survey to learn how to best meet the needs of artists/artisans and create a positive impact in the community through arts and culture. Would you be interested in becoming part of a network or directory? This network would be to connect artists to opportunities, promote collaboration, voice any needs, create new projects, etc. The artist directory on the LMG website also needs to be updated, so we can connect artists with various opportunities, whether it be funding, events, or other projects.
Here’s the link to the google form: https://forms.gle/LttZnSe5Qxtc8DMV7

As for Listuguj, our position is as follows:
