possibility for the local creative community.
The Rozsa Foundation Emerging Arts Manager Award honours an emerging arts manager in the early stages of their career whose dedication and innovation in their field have elevated the work of the artists or arts organizations they work with.
This initiative builds on the commitment by the Canada Council for the Arts to address historical funding imbalances experienced by Alberta’s arts communities. Past related efforts have included organizing in-person outreach sessions in Lethbridge, Canmore, Edmonton and Calgary, including dedicated sessions for artists and arts organizations from Indigenous, Deaf and disability and racialized communities.
Starting in the spring of 2025, two Alberta-based arts liaison consultants will be retained to establish an on-the-ground presence for the Canada Council in Alberta. The consultants will engage with communities across the province to increase awareness of and access to funding opportunities and provide the Council with field intelligence with a view to ensuring impactful support of Alberta’s arts sector.
This latest two-year initiative will build on the Council’s previous investment in programs like Future Focus in Calgary and Invent and Adapt in Edmonton. Through ongoing collaboration with the Alberta arts sector, this initiative will expand the Council’s reach and impact in Alberta for the benefit of the entire arts ecosystem.
