Depuis 2017, le Comit\u00e9 d’exposition sur les arts et la culture carib\u00e9enne (CEACC)<\/strong> s’impose comme un acteur important de la promotion culturelle dans la r\u00e9gion de l’Estrie, particuli\u00e8rement \u00e0 Magog. Dans une perspective de rapprochement interculturel et de lutte contre le racisme, l’organisme \u0153uvre \u00e0 cr\u00e9er des espaces favorisant les \u00e9changes entre les communaut\u00e9s et la d\u00e9couverte des diverses richesses culturelles.<\/p>

Chaque ann\u00e9e, le CEACC organise un festival ext\u00e9rieur de trois jours ainsi qu’une exposition collective int\u00e9rieure pr\u00e9sent\u00e9e pendant un mois. Ces activit\u00e9s permettent \u00e0 des personnes de diff\u00e9rentes origines de se rencontrer, de partager des moments conviviaux et de d\u00e9couvrir les arts et la culture carib\u00e9enne dans un esprit d’ouverture et de dialogue.<\/p>

Cet \u00e9v\u00e9nement rassemble des communaut\u00e9s qu\u00e9b\u00e9coises, carib\u00e9ennes, autochtones, africaines, europ\u00e9ennes et bien d’autres, dans le but de favoriser le vivre-ensemble et de d\u00e9construire les pr\u00e9jug\u00e9s.<\/p>

Le fondateur du CEACC, monsieur Th\u00e9salus Pierre-\u00c9tienne<\/strong>, originaire des Cara\u00efbes et \u00e9tabli au Qu\u00e9bec depuis plus de cinquante ans, s’est donn\u00e9 pour mission de faciliter l’int\u00e9gration des communaut\u00e9s culturelles. Par son engagement, il met l’art et les artistes en lumi\u00e8re en leur offrant une vitrine pour promouvoir leurs \u0153uvres, tout en cr\u00e9ant des occasions de rencontre, de dialogue et de rapprochement entre les communaut\u00e9s.<\/p>

Mission<\/h3>

Faire dialoguer les cultures pour les ann\u00e9es \u00e0 venir et contribuer \u00e0 ce que l’exp\u00e9rience de la nouvelle mosa\u00efque qui se construit au Qu\u00e9bec soit tiss\u00e9e serr\u00e9e et \u00e9volue dans le bien-vivre ainsi que dans la connaissance des uns et des autres.<\/p>

Vision<\/h3>

Cr\u00e9er des espaces de rencontre inclusifs et accessibles \u00e0 tous. Encadrer, accompagner et soutenir les artistes issus de la diversit\u00e9, promouvoir leurs \u0153uvres, faciliter leur int\u00e9gration et leur permettre de d\u00e9velopper leur potentiel afin qu’ils puissent prendre pleinement leur place dans la soci\u00e9t\u00e9 qu\u00e9b\u00e9coise et canadienne.<\/p>

Valeurs<\/h3>
