Honouring the Children Grant │Calgary Arts Development

May 14, 2024

Value

up to $75,000

Description

On June 2, 2021, Calgary Arts Development made a statement announcing that we designated up to $75,000 of our ArtShare Program funds to support artistic projects in memory of the 215 children found at Kamloops Indian Residential School. Since that time, there have been many more recoveries of unmarked graves at residential school sites across Canada, and as efforts increase to search these sites, there will be many more to come. With the support of our Indigenous Advisory, we named the $75,000 funding pool the Honouring the Children Grant which we offered again in 2022 and 2023, and will be available for 2024 as well. 

Eligible Applicants

First Nations, Métis, and Inuit (FNMI)

Eligible Expenses

This program is specifically for Indigenous artists or Indigenous arts organizations who live and work on Treaty 7 territory, to support artistic projects responding to, honouring, or in memory of the loss of life, culture, ceremony, and language amongst the original peoples of this land because of the residential school system.

Deadline Date

All funds for this program have been allocated and applications are now closed.
