カナダのプロフェッショナル・アーティスト向け創作助成プログラム

The Creation Grant Program, administered by the Newfoundland and Labrador Arts Council (ArtsNL), provides financial assistance to Indigenous artists, artistic groups and cultural carriers residing in Newfoundland and Labrador. Two funding streams are available: a Creation Micro‑grant of up to $1,500 for small‑scale projects and a Creation Grant of up to $15,000 for projects running less than one year. Successful applicants may receive a minimum of 75 % of eligible project expenses, with a maximum of $15,000 awarded annually across all ArtsNL programs. Eligible activities include research, creation, presentation and transmission of knowledge related to artistic work, as well as arts‑cultural training and mentorship. Applications are open on a rolling basis; no fixed deadline is published. The program is free to apply. Applicants must be Indigenous (or part of an Indigenous‑led collective), over 18, and have been residents of Newfoundland and Labrador for at least one year at the time of application. Both individual artists and groups may apply. The grant does not cover large capital purchases, already completed work, or for‑profit business expenses.

Indigenous artists, groups or culture carriers; resident of Newfoundland and Labrador for at least one year; age 18+; Indigenous‑led collaborations only; cannot fund large capital purchases or already completed work.
