The Fund is a catalyst for Canadian artists to take their projects to a new level. Our investments provide the additional time and resources that bold, ambitious projects need to be successful on the national and international stage.

We do not invest small amounts of money in a large number of projects; instead, we invest up to $2,000,000 a year in 9 to 11 projects. To date, our investments have ranged from $80,000 to $240,000.
