Creative Arts activities can play an important role in Cape Breton University’s (CBU) engagement with the five mandates of the strategic plan. We invest in our students when we provide courses and activities that foster creative expression. The ability to apply creative solutions to difficult problems is highly valued in the workplace. For this reason, the experiences that we can provide have impacts across programs.

Many faculty and staff are already engaged in creative activities both in the classroom and through membership in arts-based societies and groups. By providing opportunities within programs, on campus and within the community, we benefit from an untapped resource. Shared creative activities involving faculty, staff and students create a unique collegial experience.
