On August 27, Toronto Arts Council hosted an in-person Granting Transformation Community Consultation, where we heard directly from artists and community members about how to make our granting programs easier to use and access.  

Now, we’re inviting you to share your voice through our online survey. Your feedback will help us explore new ways of working and better support Toronto’s arts community. 

The topic and questions within the survey have been designed using input from artists, community members, and grantees, and asks: “What if every granting program came with an opportunity to access space, mentorship, technological skills, professional development, connections, or information about other supports?” 

We hope that this “What If?” question sparks your interest in some way and that you choose to take 5–10 minutes to participate. The survey will close on September 22. 

For more information about the survey, the Granting Transformation project, or any of the work that Toronto Arts Council does, please reach out anytime to Rupal Shah, Director Policy & Programs at rupal@torontoarts.org.
