Creative Pathways: Banff Centre’s Strategic Plan

We invite you to read our Strategic Plan, released in April, 2021. You can flip through the pages by clicking the flipbook below.

The development of this plan began in late 2019, and was interrupted, and then informed by the societal changes accelerated by the COVID-19 pandemic. Banff Centre is emerging from this period renewed and resilient, taking on the exciting and emerging opportunities for growth, which you will see reflected in the Strategic Plan.

We acknowledge, with deep respect and gratitude, our home on the side of Sacred Buffalo Guardian Mountain, in the beautiful and special territory of Treaty 7. We recognize the past, present, and future generations of Stoney Nakoda, Blackfoot, Tsuut’ina Nations, and Métis from Region 3, who help us steward this land, as well as honour and celebrate this place.

The inspiration for the visual design for this strategic plan comes from the natural world around Banff Centre.  

It considers how the cycles of nature inform us and can be a source of renewal and inspiration. 
 
Like the serotinous cones of the Lodgepole Pine Tree, whose seeds are released by the heat of a fire, Banff Centre will support new growth, while remaining grounded and nourished by its historical roots.  It will be inspired by the beauty and resilience of the surrounding forest as it creates new pathways for the future.
