[BCMA] BC Arts Council Professional Development program is back!

[Moderated BCMA subscriber listserv]

I am writing to let you know about the return of the Professional
Development program. After a temporary suspension of the program, the BC
Arts Council is again providing opportunities for arts and culture
practitioners to apply for professional development activities within the
constraints of all relevant public health advisories and protocols.

The Professional Development program assists professional artists, cultural
practitioners, production and technical personnel, and arts administrators
with specific learning opportunities and/or activities to advance their
practice or career. Awards are not intended to support the creation of new
work(s) or full-time studies. Eligible activities include but are not
limited to a course or workshop, mentorship, and pivots in artistic
practice and residency.



*Deadline to apply: Monday, February 7, 2022, 11:59 pm PST*



Maximum request amount is $7,500. The request amount may be up to 100% of
the total project budget.

program. Registration is required:

*The BC Arts Council acknowledges it carries out its work on the
traditional territories of Indigenous nations throughout British Columbia.
We pay our respects to the Elders, past and present, descendants and
custodians of these lands. We honour the knowledge keepers and the
continuing relationships with Indigenous peoples in BC that develop through
our work together.  The BC Arts Council is grateful to the lək̓ʷəŋən
(Songhees) and Xwsepsum (Esquimalt) ancestors and families, on whose
ancestral lands we operate our main offices.*
