The Canadian Heritage Arts Society (CHAS) delivers programming that aims to foster artistic appreciation and engagement in the performing arts for all ages. 

The Society offers live performances, workshops and training, resources to support the development and/or production of new works, and opportunities for artists to connect with the community. 

Our purposes are to provide: 

• Community outreach programs that preserve and promote arts and culture and increase public appreciation of the performing arts; and

• Instruction and training in the performing arts, through ownership of the Canadian College of the Performing Arts (CCPA).

CHAS is a non-profit charitable society (#131341356RR0001) registered with the Registrar of Societies of British Columbia and the Canada Revenue Agency. The Society is governed by a volunteer board and holds an Annual General Meeting (AGM) each fall, open to all members.
