Curious about funding your artistic practice?

Join us for an informative and practical webinar introducing artists to the Ontario Arts Council (OAC) and its grant programs. Led by veteran OAC Program Officer, Maura Broadhurst, this session will demystify the funding process and help you navigate opportunities available to individual artists.

Participants will learn about current OAC grant programs, how the peer assessment process works, how to use NOVA, the OAC’s online application portal, and proven tips for writing a strong, competitive grant application.

There will be plenty of time for questions throughout the session, with Susan Durnin, MAC’s Operations & Development Manager, moderating the chat and supporting participants along the way. Whether you’re new to OAC funding or looking to strengthen future applications, this webinar is a valuable step toward funding success.

NOTE: This webinar will NOT be recorded or shared after the presentation.
