Call for Metro Vancouver Artists: Artists in Communities
Artist compensation: $18,000 artist fee and $2,500 art supplies. Artists in Communities (AiC) is open for pre-applications! Are you an artist that: Lives in Metro Vancouver? Can commit to a self-directed community-engaged project for 18 months? Has experience working with diverse communities? Has experience developing and/or delivering community-engaged or social practice projects in community settings? If yes, please consider submitting a pre-application for the Vancouver Park Board’s Artists in Communities program. Together, community members and the selected artist work from a community centre to foster social connection, cultural participation, and learning opportunities. Collaborating on creative projects about things that matter to the neighbourhood, artists use different disciplines — visual art, film-making, dance, creative writing, fibre arts, and more — to build a physical or social legacy through artmaking.
