With
a compelling history, rich character and a diverse
community that is home to citizens from all parts
of the world, north Etobicoke has a spirit unique
to Toronto's many communities.
To achieve its goal to support sustainable and
well resourced arts, culture and recreation programs
and services that reflect the cultural diversity
and energy of north Etobicoke, NERP brings together
a group of highly skilled and knowledgeable individuals.
Members of this work group include local arts
organizations, political officials, concerned
citizens and city resource staff. |

With the help of eXpect
Theatre, this work group engaged the local
community in a storytelling initiative that
saw over 65 local residents share their stories
and impressions of Rexdale in an online documentary
titled Rexdale
Voices. This documentary premiered to
well over 120 community members as part of
Canada's Multicultural Day celebration.
Additionally, this work group has worked hard
to support the enhancement of local arts,
culture and recreational services including
the expansion of the Franklin Carmichael Arts
Centre, the viability of youth theatre productions
and the enhancement of local community centers.
