Keyano College’s decision to repurpose its arts centre space for health programming has received pushback from the local performing arts community. According to CBC, Keyano requires dedicated infrastructure for its growing health programs. Since the college has not offered programs in art, drama, or music since 2014, it has opted to repurpose its arts centre space to meet this need. Members of the performing arts community told CBC that the loss of the arts centre would negatively impact the community, as it is the only facility of its kind in the region. Keyano Spokesperson Ercelan Yazdani stated that the college remains “committed to supporting the arts” through the Keyano Theatre.
