Who can apply
This program is intended for new and developing arts organizations, established arts organizations that work on a project basis, and arts organizations undertaking a special, one-time initiative. Collectives or unincorporated groups may be eligible provided that they meet the special criteria outlined in the guidelines.
A Project Grant must be applied to a specific project - with potential for artistic merit and civic impact - planned to take place within the 18 months following the notification date (mid-May of each year).
This program is open to Winnipeg arts organizations and collectives who have as their primary mandate and core activity, the creation, production, or presentation of the performing, visual, literary, film, video, or media arts. Organizations which receive other grants or funds from the City of Winnipeg or any of its agencies are not eligible.
Groups of artists working on a collective project including Winnipeg Fringe Festival productions should apply to this program rather than to the Individual Artist program.
Collectives must contact the Grants Consultant before applying to confirm eligibility.
About the funding
