Subsidies

Funding for performances, workshops and Artist-in-residence projects*
Funding is distributed on a first-come, first-served basis to eligible schools and do not require an application process. While these funds subsidize the cost of a MASC program, your venue will be responsible for paying the remaining balance. Please read the details below carefully to determine eligibility.
City of Ottawa Rural Initiative Funding
- Available to schools, seniors venues and community groups located in the rural districts of the City of Ottawa.

Cajole Inn Foundation

* Artist-in-Residence Program
Residency programs provide hands-on learning opportunities for participants through multiple-day, artist-led projects. If you would like to book an artist for a project of three or more full days, but require financial assistance, you may be eligible to receive a financial subsidy. While these grants substantially cover the costs of MASC residencies, your school will be responsible for any remaining balance.
