Charlotte County Archives launches new website to provide rich gem of online resources

St. Andrews, NB —The Charlotte County Archives (CCA), located in St. Andrews, has just launched an
exciting new website and has adopted a vibrant new look and feel. These initiatives will help citizens
around the province, and beyond, access new digital files and photos with the click of a button.
Board Chair Franklin Cardy says of these developments, “We have been working towards making our
holdings accessible to the public over the past year and our new website is the culmination of that work.
Increasingly, people want to be able to view documents online, either for research purposes, to discover
more about their roots, or to learn more about our rich history. And during this pandemic it is safer and
easier for people to learn more through online searches.”

The initial funding for the website was a $5,000 grant from the Provincial Department of Tourism,
Heritage and Culture — Museum Services. This Digital World and Social Media grant enabled CCA to
contract the services of Loyalist City Web Design to create a beautiful and functional new website,
where you can see what collections CCA has in its environmentally protected vault. You can read lists of
church records, microfilm, and library holdings. You can also read about items of genealogical interest
and see a myriad of archival photos. https://ccarchives.ca/

A second grant, from Young Canada Works, is funding an internship focused on the creation of a digital
vault for the storage of digitized documents. This will provide guidelines for accessioning, and training
for community partners on how to collect and index holdings. Keith MacKnight has been hired as the
intern and, working with Archives Manager Heather Wilson and Board members, he will showcase the
digital resources of the Archives. Hundreds of new digitized records and 25,000 digitized photos show
the readiness of the CCA to further adapt to COVID-19 protocols.

Graphic designer Elaine Wilson, working with the Archives positioning committee, has designed the
strong new logo, which appears on the new website and will be used in future communications and
signage.

In February, CCA hosted a Heritage Fair at the Garcelon Centre, where like-minded archival and historic
community groups encouraged the Archives to become a hub for all such groups in the County. A new
listing on the CCA web site will unite these groups in a shared goal of preserving the past, including
events happening as recently as yesterday. The Charlotte County Archives encourages people to label
their own digital photos clearly for future users and invites citizens from Charlotte County to consider
sending items of historic interest to the Archives for careful preservation.

Mentor artists will be approached after mentees are selected to ensure the best possible opportunity and fit for both parties.

Connexion ARC is calling on early/mid-career artists in New Brunswick to apply to Connexion ARC for this program by February 26, 2021.

Connexion ARC respectfully acknowledges the land on which we operate as the traditional unceded territory of the Wolastoqiyik/Wəlastəkwiyik and Mi’kmaq Peoples. This teArritory is covered by the “Treaties of Peace and Friendship” which Wolastoqiyik/Wəlastəkwiyik and Mi’kmaq Peoples first signed with the British crown in 1726. The treaties did not deal with surrender of lands and resources but in fact recognized Mi’kmaq and Wolastoqiyik/Wəlastəkwiyik title and established the rules for what was to be an ongoing relationship between nations.

artsnb deadline – Artist-in-Residence Program | Date limite artsnb – Programme artiste en résidence

Good afternoon, cultural stakeholders, arts galleries, collectives, centres and arts and culture organizations.

First, Happy New Year to all of you! We hope that 2020 will have set the stage to make 2021 a year full of new opportunities and achievements!

Here is a friendly reminder of a deadline coming up very soon at the New Brunswick Arts Board (artsnb):

Please note that the deadline for the Artist-in-Residence Program is February 1st, 2021.

The Artist-in-Residence Program is intended for New Brunswick public or private institutions and organizations that wish to host professional artists to enable them to pursue specific projects relating to their creative work. The invited artists may reside in New Brunswick or outside the province. This program is also open to individual professionals who seek to advance their creative work through participation in long-term (3 months or more) residency opportunities at home or outside the province. The artists in residence are to contribute to the promotion and understanding of the arts by means of the artists’ contact with the clientele of the establishments.

We strongly encourage you to apply as soon as possible for this program; your participation in this program fosters the development of arts throughout the province! If you have any questions, especially questions related to health regulations and planning and budgeting in the time of COVID, please reach out to our Program Officer at (506) 440-0037, or by email at prog@artsnb.ca.

For more information please visit https://artsnb.ca/web/programs/artist-in-residence/

Bon après-midi, intervenants culturels, galeries, collectifs, centres d’art, et organisations artistiques et culturelles.

Tout d’abord, bonne année à tous ! Nous espérons que 2020 aura préparé le terrain pour faire de 2021 une année pleine de nouvelles opportunités et de réalisations!

 

Voici un rappel amical d’une date limite qui s’en vient très bientôt au sein du Conseil des arts du Nouveau-Brunswick (artsnb) :

Veuillez noter que la date limite pour le programme d’Artiste en résidence est le 1er février 2021.

 

Le programme d’artiste en résidence s’adresse aux institutions publiques ou privées et aux organismes néo-brunswickois qui désirent accueillir des artistes professionnels dans le cadre de projets leur permettant de se consacrer à leur activité créatrice. Les artistes invités peuvent être résidents du Nouveau-Brunswick ou d’ailleurs. Les artistes individuels peuvent aussi faire une demande pour leur permettre de participer à des résidences à long-terme (3 mois ou plus) soit au Nouveau-Brunswick ou à l’extérieur de la province. Les artistes en résidence doivent contribuer à la promotion et à la compréhension des arts par leur présence auprès de la clientèle de l’établissement hôte.

Nous vous encourageons vivement à appliquer le plus tôt possible pour cette subvention; votre participation à ce programme favorise le développement des arts dans toute la province ! Si vous avez des questions, en particulier des questions relatives à la réglementation en matière de santé et à la planification et au budget en temps de COVID, veuillez contacter notre agent de programme au (506) 440-0037, ou par courriel à prog@artsnb.ca.
