Call For Applications – Medium Arts Project Grant

January 18, 2024

The Government of the Northwest Territories is now accepting funding proposals for the Medium Arts Project Grant for the 2024-2025 fiscal year.

This grant provides $5,000 to $10,000 to mid-career and established artists, craftspeople, and arts and non-arts organizations to cover costs for medium-scale arts projects and events such as the completion and exhibition of a collection of work (e.g., fashion, paintings, etc.), studio/venue fees, illustration and design costs, artistic development, and more. Learn more about the expenses covered by this grant here.

This grant supports various arts activities, including creation, production, presentation, training, and artist development in dance, digital art, fashion, literary arts, media arts, multidisciplinary art, music and sound, artistic development, theatre arts, and visual arts and crafts.

Funding is allotted to the six regions represented by the NWT Arts Council (North Slave, South Slave, Dehcho, Beaufort Delta, Sahtu, and Tłı̨chǫ) based on population. This gives mid-career and established artists and craftspeople in small communities a better chance of accessing support for their artistic projects and activities.

The deadline to apply is February 28, 2024.
