An investment in local arts is an investment in our province’s future.
Artists are the magic makers, the motivators and the light bringers, inspiring us with the songs they write, the films and plays they produce, and all the moving art they create.
In order to make art, they also need to market their work, budget, plan, and network; there are so many nuts and bolts to running an arts-based business. That’s why we’re proud to help equip artists with the tools, knowledge and resources they need to create their best work. Our Business Workshops for Artists (BWA) program is one of the ways we accomplish this.
Since 2017, we have delivered 75 workshops to over 1,830 artists, arts administrators and volunteer board members, enabling them to run their businesses more effectively and make more art.
Your gift will support this program, and help build a more sustainable arts sector, empowering artists who contribute to the vibrancy and well-being of Newfoundland and Labrador.
In 2021, we established our charitable sister organization, Engaging Community and Arts NL (ECANL), which contributes to the BWA program and other educational projects. It’s thanks to generous donors like you that we can provide this program at no cost for artists, so that they can focus on what they do best – making art and helping build a thriving cultural sector that uplifts us all.
Your 100% tax-deductible gift will help:
- Develop free tools, workshops and resources to empower artists to continue to create art that uplifts and inspires our communities
- Program exciting networking/mentorship opportunities to connect the business and arts communities
- Nurture creativity, supporting local artists and fostering a thriving arts community
An investment in local arts is an investment in our province’s future.
ECANL is a charitable organization (Engaging Community and Arts Inc, BN 79206 9403), and gratefully accepts donations on behalf of those who believe in the importance of our mandate to advance education to artists and the general public.
