About our Association

The Atlantic Culture and Arts Exchange Association was registered as a Non-Profit Organization in Ontario in 2010 and held its first inaugural meeting in 2013. Our mission statement is to bridge the cultural and arts exchange between Canada, China and other countries.

The Atlantic Culture and Arts Exchange Association has three branches: the Atlantic Photographers Association, the Atlantic Artists Association, and the Atlantic Calligraphers Association. We have more than 600 active registered members and more than 2000 non-registered participants from Canada, the United States and China alone.

The Atlantic Culture and Arts Exchange Association has organized multiple Toronto International Photography Competitions, annual Art Shows and Calligraphy Shows that have been widely praised by the artistic community. We conduct high quality online and in-person art seminars/lectures, and organize outdoor photography excursions and sketching/painting trips regularly.

The Atlantic Culture and Arts Exchange Association is dedicated to building a platform for artists and art lovers to advance their skills and showcase their work.
