The 6th annual Dead North Film Festival was held last week from February 28th to March 4th and the NWTPMA was once again proud to be a sponsor of the only genre filmmaking festival in the circumpolar world.
Help us change the way lottery funds are spent in the NWT
The Northwest Territories is the only jurisdiction in Canada which denies lottery funds to be used for the arts. Under current legislation, 100 per cent of our territory’s dividend from lottery sales goes towards sports and recreation funding.
The Government of the Northwest Territories is currently reviewing the Lottery Act and an e-petition has been created by Eli Purchase of Yellowknife to allow a portion of the funds to be used to support the arts in our territory.
Happy New Year from the NWTPMA
Happy New Year from your NWTPMA board.
Wishing you a fulfilling and creative 2018 – happy shooting!
