Turret launches letter writing campaign

Securing funds is a crucial part of reinvigorating the Turret building at 1588 Barrington Street. We’re gearing up for our pitch for the Halifax Regional Municipality’s Community Planning and Economic Development Standing Committee on March 20th, 2025. We need you to show your support for bringing the arts back to downtown Halifax.

Your letter lets our Municipal, Provincial, and Federal representatives know that Turret Arts Space is vital to making Halifax a thriving city.

Show your support to:

• Create an accessible cultural hub that attracts artists, youth, and visitors of all ages to Halifax.

• Drive regional economic impact through the culture sector by building artists’ livelihoods.

• Set new precedents for stewardship by designating 1588 Barrington Street a Queer Heritage Sites
