This program is intended to provide one-time project funding to registered non-profit arts organizations in Calgary (known as Mohkinsstsis in Blackfoot). The Project Grant Program seeks to support projects that align with any of the following priority areas:
- Projects that reflect and contribute to the vibrancy and vitality of Calgary’s arts sector and create opportunities for Calgarians to access artistic experiences.
- Projects that create opportunities to attract, restore and retain jobs for artists and arts professionals.
- Projects that support organizational development or strengthen the organization’s ability to connect with their community.
- Arts-centred projects that encourage everyday creativity, including cross-sector collaboration, creative economy and neighbourhood-level community initiatives.
