This fund is open to artists and staff of music companies associated with the project Artist or Applicant. Support for this fund is provided exclusively by Canada’s Private Radio Broadcasters.
Eligible costs include but are not limited to: costs to make approved project activities accessible for the Applicant, equipment rental, support worker to assist with approved project activities, sign language interpretation, a guide or visual describer, converting material into accessible formats.
Ineligible costs include but are not limited to: supports and services required for day-to-day living and activities not directly related to the funded project, capital costs (e.g. purchasing equipment), costs supported by other public funders.
