Finding English information about arts funding in Quebec can be challenging. Visit our searchable funding platform to find Quebec arts funding for your project.
Québec Relations offers one-on-one consultations to help you find the grant programs that best meet you needs and to make sense of the eligibility criteria.
When the project first launched in 2018, Québec Relations had one primary goal: to improve the flow of information between the ministries and funding bodies of the Government of Quebec and the English-language arts community. Through extensive research and documentation, we worked to help members of the community to better understand the services and funding sources available to them.
Now in its fourth year, the project has grown to encompass two main areas: its continued research phase, where surveys, focus groups and consultations allow us to better understand the community’s needs; and its resource phase, where we turn that research into action to help meet those needs.
The Québec Relations project specializes in providing information about and assistance with finding provincial funding opportunities. There are also many federal funding opportunities available for artists working in Quebec. These grant programs cover everything from Travel to Research. For more information about federal funding opportunities, consult the following sites:
During COVID-19 and social distancing, ELAN and Québec Relations have connected with our community by providing a series of webinars on funding and resources in the province. These webinar videos are free for public viewing.
If you have question about any of the webinars above please consult our FAQs page. If your question is not in the document please contact Nick Maturo at research@quebec-elan.org
ELAN is an official minority language organization within a country that recognizes two languages as official. ELAN is located in Tiohtià:ke, the original name for Montreal in Kanien’kéha, the language of the Mohawk—also known as Mooniyang, which is the Anishinaabeg name given to the city by the Algonquin. While we are based in this city, our projects have also taken place in many regions across Quebec.
We acknowledge the colonial origin of English and French in Canada, and recognize that both languages benefit from official status throughout the land. The province that we know as Quebec is an amalgamation of the traditional territories of the Innu and Inuit nations, Algonquian nations, as well as the Mohawk nations of the Haudenosaunee Confederacy. Kanien’kéha and Anishinaabemowin are but two of the original languages of this province; Atikamekw, Cree, Inuktitut, and Innu-aimun are also among the many Indigenous languages spoken across Quebec as majority languages, all well before French and English.
ELAN acknowledges the important work being done by First Nations, Inuit and Métis peoples to revive the traditional languages of these territories, and their advocacy for the official status of Indigenous languages.
