African Nova Scotian Music Association (ANSMA) are recipients of the 2023 Creative Nova Scotia award’s Community Impact Award. On this episode, I chat with Julien Matwawana, their first Executive Director about who they are and their impact on Nova Scotia’s music industry.

This series of Creative NS award winner interviews would not be possible without the support of Arts Nova Scotia, The Creative Nova Scotia Leadership Council, Heist and Keke Beatz. Visit artsns.ca to nominate a Nova Scotia based artist or apply for awards and grants for yourself.
