Canada Arts Presentation Fund – Programming | Presenter Support Organizations:

Only project-related expenses are eligible, which can be of cash and in-kind value; these may include:

• costs related to the coordination of contact events, showcases and presenter conferences, including hall and venue rentals, registration and material costs, artists’ fees, and per diems, accommodation and travel related to artists;
• promotion/marketing including cost associated with social media;
• training and professional development activities, e.g. workshop facilitation, mentorship expenses, consultant fees and research costs as well as travel, accommodation and per diems related to business activities; and administration costs.

In-kind contributions are considered real contributions to the cost of the proposed project but are not reimbursable. Donated goods and services may be considered in-kind contributions if they:

• are essential to your project’s success;
• are eligible and would otherwise have to be purchased or paid for by you;
• can be measured at fair market value (i.e.: in relation to similar goods and services); and
• are balanced by an equal revenue in your budget (i.e.: total in-kind expenses equal total in-kind revenues).
