Grant to our community:
Arts and Culture
Introduction
At Vancouver Foundation we recognize that arts and culture is more than just entertainment. Arts and culture help us celebrate our past and our traditions, document our present, and envision our future. Arts and culture also help us expand our imagination and spur our collective creativity. It contributes to our economy in many ways, and is a key ingredient in a dynamic and vibrant community.
Purpose
The purpose of the Arts and Culture grants is to support and encourage the growth and sustained presence of arts and cultural activities among diverse cultural communities throughout British Columbia.
Goals
- Support the development of new artistic works and exhibitions.
- Support small scale capital requests from smaller organizations with limited fundraising capacity, located in communities outside of urban centres; requests will be limited to furnishings, equipment or renovations that increase service delivery or community access.
- Encourage the highest possible standards of artistic excellence.
- Improve access to education, training and mentorship programs in the arts.
- Encourage collaboration amongst arts groups that will foster the cross-fertilization of artistic or cultural ideas.
