Formed in 2006, artsScene is a group of leading young business professionals dedicated to fostering the growth of the arts in Canada through volunteerism, patronage and support. As a creative hub, artsScene connects young business professionals across Canada to the arts by:

• Inspiring interest in the arts. artsScene offers members unique encounters with the arts through its Behind the Scenes programming. Members attend a different arts venue on a quarterly basis, from theatre and opera, to ballet and film. Each venue is preceded by a "Behind the Scenes" encounter with the artists, directors and designers.
  
  
• Offering ways to engage in the arts. artsScene connects young business professionals to board, committee and other volunteering opportunities in the arts through BoardLink. It also provides mentor opportunities with senior business leaders in the arts.
  
  
• Providing recognition for outstanding engagement in the arts. artsScene recognizes young business professionals who demonstrate leadership as volunteers in the arts with the Young Professionals Award. This is a new award that will be launched in 2008.
