Description
WHAT WE DO
Access Copyright Foundation has three grant programs to support creators, publishers, organizations and arts professionals in their work:
Marian Hebb Research Grants support inquiry, information gathering and exploration to individuals and organizations relevant to Canadian publishing, writing and visual arts, and toward the realization of a publishable work in progress.
Professional Development Grants support artistic and professional skills development for individuals and organizations engaged in the creation, production and publication of text and images.
Events Grants provide funding to organizations and artists groups to showcase publishable works to the public or to host professional development events for writers, visual artists, publishers and related arts professionals.
DEADLINES AND GRANT AMOUNTS
Access Copyright Foundation has a total funding envelope of $250,000 per year for its three grant programs. The demand for Access Copyright Foundation grants exceeds available resources. Funds may not be available to support all the recommended applicants or to provide grants in the amounts requested. To distribute the funding more widely among
worthy applicants, the Foundation has introduced the following limitations:
Successful applicants are ineligible to apply to the same grant program at the next annual deadline. A Marian Hebb Research grant recipient, for instance, must wait two years before applying again for research support.
Individuals or organizations are limited to a maximum of two Access Copyright Foundation Grants within a twenty-four month period, regardless of the grant type.
