About Us

What we do?

The KCCS serves not only as a platform for artistic expression but also as a sanctuary where the Kurdish community can gather, exchange ideas, and weave the threads of their cultural identity into the vibrant fabric of Canadian society. Through its various programs, exhibitions, and events, the KCCS invites both Kurds and non-Kurds alike to embark on a journey of discovery, exploration, and appreciation of the rich tapestry of Kurdish arts, cinema, music, dance, literature, and beyond.

our vision

At KCCS, our vision is to cultivate a thriving community that reflects the enduring values of the Kurdish heritage while embracing the mosaic of Canadian identity. We aspire to be a cultural nucleus where the warmth of Kurdish hospitality meets the diversity of Canadian inclusivity. Rooted in the rich traditions of the Kurdish people from different countries of origin, our vision is to create a space where storytelling, artistry, and shared experiences can weave the fabric of our collective identity.

Mission

Our mission at the Kurdish Canadian Cultural Society (KCCS) is twofold: to empower the Kurdish community and to foster a deeper understanding and appreciation of Kurdish arts and culture within the broader Canadian context. Through a multifaceted approach that encompasses promotion, preservation, and celebration, we seek to create opportunities for cultural expression, dialogue, and collaboration that empower individuals to connect with their heritage and contribute to the rich tapestry of Canadian multiculturalism.
