Premier Andrew Furey has announced $2.7 million in funding to get ready for the 2024’s Year of the Arts. The Year of the Arts will feature public events, festivals, music, and performances. There will also be a number of public art exhibitions and opportunities for participation and collaboration with the broader community. The Newfoundland and Labrador Arts Council will get $2 million to establish and administer a Year of the Arts grant program. The program’s aim is to assist artists with the creation and presentation of artistic works for Year of the Arts. Professional artists and professional arts organizations throughout Newfoundland and Labrador are eligible to apply through ArtsNL’s application process. Celebrate NL will also establish a one-time, $700,000 Arts Celebration Fund. Approximately 40 organizations whose primary focus is presenting, promoting, or developing the arts will be eligible for this funding, which will support capacity building in the arts sector. Arts Celebration funding can be used for capital or operating expenses. The funding will automatically be dispersed to eligible organizations, beginning in the fall.
