In 2017, CIAMS founded the Vancouver International Music Competition (VIMC) to commemorate Canada’s 150th Anniversary. As the first large-scale international classical music competition in British Columbia, the VIMC pioneered a platform for widespread intercultural music-making, while promoting Canadian composers around the globe.
Following the competition, CIAMS has strived to create exciting opportunities for young musicians to further their musical careers, while organizing quality events in Vancouver and building a lasting legacy for the arts in our great city.
