Kitchener - Waterloo Multicultural Centre

In 1967, a determined group of newcomers to Canada formed the K-W Folk Arts Council and organized the very first Multicultural Festival in Kitchener-Waterloo. Over time, the mandate of that organization expanded to providing support and assistance to newcomers to our community and then later to provide interpretation and translation services to public and private sector clients in the community. Today, the Centre provides a wide range of services to thousands of clients throughout Waterloo Region (and beyond) and still hosts one of the biggest Multicultural Festivals in Canada every year. OUR VALUES Advocacy We stand, take action and empower others to create positive change in our community. Welcoming We strive to create an inclusive and respectful space . Accountability We act responsibly to fulfill our commitments . Community We believe we are stronger together and actively foster collaboration. Responsiveness We listen, adapt, and innovate, resulting in positive solutions .

The K-W Multicultural Centre exists to foster the diversity which exists in this community and to facilitate the full participation of everyone who lives here. Our mandate is to break down the barriers to full participation of new Canadians in the Kitchener-Waterloo Community and surrounding areas.
