About BRASED

BRASED stands for Brazilian Cultural Society of Edmonton.

It is a non-profit organization initiated by Brazilians and friends who live in Edmonton, Alberta, Canada. BRASED was established in April of 2005 with the mission to promote Brazilian culture, and to integrate and help Brazilians who live in Edmonton and in nearby towns.

We organize several events during the year such as the Carnival party, Independence Day party, summer picnic and Christmas party just to mention a few. Check out our events photo gallery by clicking on the EVENTS tab. We also plan in the future to participate in the annual Edmonton Heritage Festival held during the summer, where over 70 cultural associations set up tents to promote the culture and food of their respective countries.

One of BRASED’s goal is to helps the community by being a centre of information for Brazilians who live in Edmonton or anywhere else in Canada. BRASED also can serve as an important information source for Brazilians who intend to be living in Canada in the near future. BRASED has links with the Brazilian Consulate in Toronto, and helps disseminate important information from the Consulate pertaining to Brazilians who live abroad.

We encourage Brazilians and people interested in Brazilian Culture to join and support our new Society.
