This initiative not only provides participants with practical skills but also offers a pathway to career opportunities in industries that rely on skilled trades.
Our certification program is designed to address a significant demand for skilled tradespeople in Northern Canada, a demand that continues to grow as industries expand in the region. Welding is an essential skill that can lead to careers in construction, manufacturing, and beyond. By offering this training locally, Red Fish Arts Studio empowers people to build expertise close to home, where they can apply their new skills in a community context.
The program is also deeply aligned with our studio's mission to foster craftsmanship and creativity. Participants will not only learn technical skills but also explore the artistic aspects of welding, blending function with creative expression. This unique approach helps our learners discover new ways to apply their skills, both professionally and creatively.
We’re proud to play a role in supporting local talent and helping individuals embark on new career paths in the skilled trades. To learn more about our welding certification program and how it’s making an impact in the North, check out the full article on CBC News:

We're thrilled to share some exciting news about the Red Fish Arts Studio, which is taking bold steps to expand its community impact! Recently, our studio has been working on an innovative funding plan to support the growth of our programs and further develop a creative space that welcomes everyone in the community. The team has been exploring ways to not only enhance the resources we offer but also ensure that they remain accessible to all, helping aspiring artists and community members thrive in their creative journeys.
Cambridge Bay, a community rich with history and tradition, recently celebrated a significant milestone—100 years since its founding. This celebration is a testament to the resilience, creativity, and strength of Inuit culture and heritage. At the heart of this celebration was the opening of a new art and heritage studio, a space that pays homage to Inuit art forms and serves as a cultural hub for both local artists and the broader community.
Let’s be real: Cambridge Bay’s winters can be long, and finding things to do can be a challenge. But at Red Fish Arts Studio, we’re here to change that—one spark at a time! We’re inviting young people in our community to step away from their screens, roll up their sleeves, and dive into a world of creativity they may not have known existed.
