Artist Enhancement Grant
The Artist Enhancement Grant is for artists in South Vancouver-Collingwood who have an art idea for their community. We approve projects that show collaboration between artists and community members in the creative process. We kindly ask the artist to provide a resume, website or equivalent. The art project description will have to clearly involve the neighbours in the creative process and final product. If the art project and artist qualify, the grant can provide up to $500 for the artist and up to $500 for other project expenses (for a maximum of $1,000).
*NOTE: This grant stream is not offered in most communities and therefore cannot be found on the NSG website. If you are looking to apply for the Artist Enhancement Grant, please identify that clearly in your application.
If you have any questions, please contact Cherry or Prabhi at nsg@southvan.org.
