Foundations in Indigenous Fine Arts
Are you Indigenous and curious about developing skills in creative writing or visual arts in an Indigenous context? Our unique FIFA certificate program is offered in partnership with UVic's Continuing Studies division and the En'owkin Centre in Penticton BC.
The FIFA program offers courses accredited through UVic but positioned within an Indigenous cultural community's established learning environment. For nearly 30 years, FIFA has been promoting diverse Indigenous classes, skills and ideas connected to a larger Fine Arts network.
