The Grow component of the Strategic Innovation Fund provides multi-year support for a limited number of longer-term, collaborative initiatives that propose sustainable solutions to sectoral or cross-sectoral issues and demonstrate strong potential to be scaled up for regional, national, or international impact.
This component provides large-scale support for existing innovation projects that have already been successfully developed, tested, prototyped and/or piloted. Projects must address systemic issues in the arts sector and propose sustainable solutions to sectoral or cross-sectoral issues to help rebuild a more resilient, sustainable, equitable, accessible, greener, healthier, and connected arts sector.
The Canada Council is inviting arts organizations to submit an Expression of Interest to this component.
