Read the press release

Through in-depth training, individualized mentorship, and peer-to-peer sessions, artsvest Regional aims to build capacity in the area of sponsorship for small and mid-sized arts, culture, and heritage organizations. Combined with matching fund incentives for new sponsorship dollars raised, the regional program equips Toronto organizations with tools to attract and retain corporate partners, enabling them to grow and thrive.

“This program offers a unique opportunity to gain personal and organizational professional development. You then are able to apply your learnings to secure sponsorship which is the most valuable part. Getting hands on practice with support from mentors is a rare and important aspect of this particular program.”

–North York Arts

 

The 2024-25 program will welcome up to 15 organizations, prioritizing small arts and culture organizations serving equity-deserving groups. Specifically, the focus will be on organizations that serve Indigenous, Black, or other equity-deserving communities, and work in the area of community-engaged arts. To be eligible, organizations must have an operating budget of under $1.5 million and be located in the City of Toronto. 

Please note that organizations must first enrol in the national artsvest program if not already registered. While both programs run concurrently, the Regional program offers more focused training and matching funds as an additional component.

 

Interested organizations were invited to submit their applications by Wednesday, October 9, 2024.
