Saskatchewan Tourism, Parks, Culture and Sport - Culture

Thanks to increased government spending in Provincial Parks to just over $25 million annually, 274 campsites will be electrified this year in three parks - Makwa Lake, Pike Lake and Emma Lake Recreation Site. These are the first of the 1,000 campsites to be electrified over the next four years.

How We Support Saskatchewan's Culture

The Ministry of Tourism, Parks, Culture and Sport (TPCS) supports, celebrates, and builds pride in Saskatchewan. The ministry's strategic focus is on tourism enhancement, quality of life and economic growth. TPCS works with diverse groups and communities to: enhance the Province's cultural, artistic, recreational and social life; promote excellence in the arts, culture, heritage and sport; and support a vibrant and growing arts and cultural community. The ministry supports and promotes Saskatchewan tourism, manages and enhances Saskatchewan's provincial parks system, conserves ecosystems and cultural resources, and provides recreational and interpretive opportunities for park visitors.

		Music, Film and Video Saskatchewan's music, film and video industries contribute to the vibrancy of our cultural sector and play an important role in our provincial economy.

		Status of the Artist Saskatchewan has affirmed the contributions that artists and cultural workers make to our economic and social life.

		Creative Industries The creative industries benefit from the support provided by the Government of Saskatchewan in partnership with the Saskatchewan Arts Board.

		Arts and Culture In the 2008-09 provincial budget, the government invested $4.2 million for arts and cultural development in Saskatchewan. The ministry also provides on-going policy and financial support to the arts and culture sectors.
