SPARK Project funding supports emerging and established equity-deserving artists, artist collectives, not-for-profits and community-based organizations from diverse communities with up to $9,000 per project. This includes up to $1,500 in funding to support youth workforce development opportunities either through employment or paid mentorships. Successful SPARK funding recipients that do not have official not-for-profit status must work with a trustee organization to receive funding. The funding is open to all art disciplines based in or with experience working in the Jane and Finch area.
