Québec Relations Webinar: Ministère de la Culture – Applications For Cultural Offerings in Educational Settings

If you’re an artist in the Culture in the Schools Repertoire or part of an organization that works with children and youth, the next Québec Relations webinar is for you! Join us on April 22^nd from 10:30 to 12 PM as we discuss the Offre culturelle dans le parcours éducatif (Cultural offerings in educational settings) program, which allows artists and organizations to offer cultural activities for children and youth taking place outside of class time through extracurricular activities or daycare settings. As funding is not permanent, we’ll cover all the basics you’ll need to be prepared to submit a project if and when the funding is announced, as well as hear from artists who’ve given workshops through the program in the past.

Spaces for this session are limited, so click here to reserve your spot today. If for any reason you can’t attend after RSVPing, please let us know so we can make your spot available for someone else.

Land Acknowledgement

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.
