The City of Saint John, through the work of the Community Arts Board, offers two grant streams for artists and arts organizations to receive funding:
Artist in Residence Grants
Open to artists residing within the City of Saint John practicing in an artist medium including but not limited to:
- visual (painting, sculpture),
- literary (poetry, collective works),
- performance (dance, music, opera, theatre, musical theatre),
- new media (film, television, radio, audio, video, animation, digital), or
- multidisciplinary and the intersectionality therein.
Applications will be posted on this website under "Artist in Residence Application" when the call to artists opens.
Community Arts Funding Programs
Registered non-profit organizations incorporated in New Brunswick and located within the City of Saint John are eligible for Community Arts Board funding. If the applicant is an unincorporated non-profit, an eligible organization must accept funding on their behalf and partner with them on the project.
There are two rounds of Community Arts Funding annually for Spring/Summer and Fall/Winter.
Applications will be posted on this on this website under "Application Form for Grants Funding" when the round is open.
