Calgary’s arts community connects our city to the rest of Canada and the world. Connecting Calgary is a grant program that will provide financial support to activities occurring during Calgary’s year as Cultural Capital of Canada, between April 1, 2012 and March 31, 2013. If you are planning a project where you travel to share Calgary’s unique creative voice across the country and abroad, host renowned national and international artists here to inspire our community and draw others to our contemporary, diverse city, or involve Calgary artists as equals in creative partnerships with the world’s best, we want to hear from you.

 
This grant program is meant to assist in the development of artistic interactions between Calgary and the rest of the world by supporting high-caliber outbound and inbound artistic activity, presented in high-visibility contexts, as well as collaborative exchanges of exceptional merit.
