Let’s talk about arts and culture. 


Stir is a new and exciting online space with a mission to tell the stories of arts and creative organizations/artists in Vancouver and surrounding areas. At a time when local stories are more important than ever, we have created Stir to be a hub for people who are yearning for integrity and authenticity.

Our readers are passionate about arts and culture. 3.9 million British Columbians participate in culture, according to the most recent Statistics Canada survey (2016).

Consumer spending on arts and culture per capita is 11 percent higher in Vancouver than the national average, with BC boasting 98,000 people who work in the arts - the highest number of artists per capita in the country and most of them concentrated in Vancouver.

Stir has a trusted and experienced team of award-winning independent journalists. We offer proven marketing expertise, social media and promotional support, content and advertising options for every budget, plus more to engage readers and help interested advertisers achieve their objectives. We have also developed a partnership plan that will provide the highest impact and awareness.


We are committed to helping artists and arts companies succeed at a time when arts and culture are experiencing unprecedented challenges. Drop us a line at hello@createastir.ca and find out how we can create a stir for your organization.
