2: Arts Organizations
Broaden the Council’s commitment to arts organizations to strengthen their capacity to underpin artistic practices in all
parts of the country.
Other Information:
The Council will expand its support to arts organizations---small, medium-sized and large---to reflect its awareness that
these bodies are not only supporters and employers of artists and producers of artistic work but also primary vehicles for
audience development (including arts education) and dissemination in the country. It will work towards a significant increase
in public investment in the organizational infrastructure across the country and reinforce the role of Canadian arts organizations
abroad. Where the Council feels that the arts infrastructure or conditions required to sustain professional arts activity
are particularly thin or fragile, it will consider special measures and tools to strengthen that infrastructure. It will work
with the most highly-resourced organizations to ensure that their focus extends beyond their own survival to encompass the
interests of the disciplines and communities in which they operate.
