As a provincial entity, ArtsLink NB acknowledges that it carries out its work on the traditional unceded territory of the Wolastoqiyik, Mi’kmaq, and Peskotomuhkati Peoples. This territory is covered by the “Treaties of Peace and Friendship” which these nations first signed with the British Crown in 1726. The treaties did not deal with the surrender of lands and resources, but in fact, recognized Mi’kmaq and Wolastoqiyik title and established the rules for what was to be an ongoing relationship between nations. 

We, the members of ArtsLink NB, pay respect to the descendants of this land and to the elders — past and present. We honour the knowledge keepers and seek guidance as we strive to develop closer relationships with the Indigenous People in this land that is called New Brunswick.
