Documenting Black/Caribbean Culture in Canada

Kya Publishing is dedicated to preserving Black/Caribbean artistry, experiences, and cultural contributions in Canada. We are seeking knowledge holders with important stories to share and will work with contributors to transform these stories into professionally produced books that document knowledge, celebrate our communities, and create lasting resources for future generations. Our goal is to help ensure that culture is documented, shared, and remembered.

Publishing Partnership

Together, we will develop a publication that preserves important cultural knowledge and makes it accessible to readers.
