Since its earliest days, The Boîte has had a firm agenda to inform audiences and encourage cross-cultural understanding. In 1997, The Boîte returned to the production of publications (begun with the production of detailed program booklets in the 1970s and 80s) through the launch of magazine 3RD. Named as a dedication to the ‘third sector’ and to reflect the critical importance of the contribution of not-for-profit organisations to the arts and communities, the magazine was broadly focused on presenting content with an emphasis on community arts issues in a culturally diverse environment.
Under the guidance of a small editorial team for each issue, The Boîte produced six issues of 3RD, however funding constraints forced the closure of the project in 1998.
