How do schools apply for funds for Artists to facilitate hands-on CREATE-ive experiences?
Our goal is to provide schools with a simple and easy process to obtain funding and to connect with qualified Artists who identify as members of the English-speaking communities of Quebec. See How we qualify Artists for more explanation.
Schools who are able to connect with an eligible ‘local’ Artist in their school board area can use this online form to apply online. To be considered ‘local’ an Artist is able to travel to the school daily.
Schools who need to bring Artists in from a distance will need to connect with ELAN’s Art Ed team to discuss how we will work with the schools in the area. As we no longer cover travel costs, one suggestion could be to have Artists travelling from a distance work with multiple schools.
English public and secondary schools can use this form to apply for funds to connect with eligible local Artists.
After reviewing the Funding Guidelines, create your school account and apply annually for Artists by:
- Find an artist or workshop directly from their artist profile or catalogue page.
- After communicating with the artist for all final details, you’re ready to apply for your grant. Go back to the Artists’ Profile page and click on the Apply button below your chosen artist’s profile picture. This will add the artist’s information we need to process your grant.
- After your workshop or event, you’ll receive a feedback form in your inbox. Fill it out so we can pay the artists!
