Visual artists, craft artists and independent critics and curators throughout British Columbia are invited to apply for funding through the BC Arts Council. Awards are available for artistic projects that focus on the creation of new work.

This funding is available to support subsistence (recipients of awards are expected to devote the majority of their time to their practice for the duration of the project), costs of materials, equipment and space rental, funds to be paid to other creative artists required for the project; and travel expenses relevant to realizing the project.

The deadline for applications is Nov. 15. More information on  http://ow.ly/iSb0305gc5g
