Calgary Arts Development Launches New Client Induction Grant Program
- Posted February 2nd, 2012
Calgary Arts Development today announced the New Client Induction Grant Program, developed to invest in arts organizations that are eligible, but not currently funded through Calgary Arts Development’s Operating Grant Program.
In November 2011, City Council responded to CADA’s request to deal with unprecedented demand from new clients representing diverse and emerging organizations through an increase to CADA’s annual base funding. In 2012, $175,000 will be available through the New Client Induction Program. The New Client Induction Program is open to all eligible arts organizations not currently funded by CADA, with priority given to diverse and emerging organizations.
“Calgary is an increasingly diverse city in the midst of dynamic change,” says Terry Rock, President and CEO of Calgary Arts Development. “As the City of Calgary's designated arts development authority, we need to provide a set of programs that can respond to our changing city and enhance the artistic and public impact of Calgary's arts organizations and artists.”
