Northern Arts and Cultural Centre

The Northern Arts and Cultural Centre is located in Yellowknife, Northwest Territories, Canada.

Created by Yellowknife residents with major support from The Globe and Mail newspaper,[2] the centre was built with government, business, foundation and individual contributions from across Canada.

In 2003 the Centre modernized its technical facilities and was integrated with the Sir John Franklin High School building.

[3] The upgraded facilities are now one of the most technically sound theatres, for its size, in North America.

[citation needed] The Northern Arts and Cultural Centre held its first annual "Children's Festival of Silliness" in January 2012.
