West Coast REACH! Association is a new, non-profit organization in Victoria, B.C., using the performing arts to nurture, inspire, empower, inform and unite people of all ages, cultures and abilities (including those with special needs).
Founded in January 2017 by Peter and Anne-Marie Brimacombe, it is modeled after a dynamic organization they also started in 2010 in the Caribbean. Both organizations are based on the premise that regardless of our background or ability, we can all learn important lessons from each other. (Program descriptions below.)
