Grant Overview
Priority Outcomes for Saskatchewan Women in the Arts Grant
The Grants for Women in the Arts program, funded by the Banking Institution, aims to support female writers and artists in Saskatchewan who embody feminist values in their work. When evaluating applications, the funder prioritizes outcomes that foster a vibrant arts scene, promote gender equality, and recognize the unique cultural context of Saskatchewan.
Advancing Feminist Art and Culture in Saskatchewan
Saskatchewan's rich cultural heritage, shaped by its Indigenous communities and immigrant history, provides a distinct backdrop for feminist art. The Saskatchewan Arts Board, a key provincial agency, plays a vital role in promoting the arts and supporting local artists. The Grants for Women in the Arts program complements this effort by focusing on female creatives who might not receive funding elsewhere. Priority outcomes for this grant include:
- Supporting innovative artistic projects that challenge societal norms and promote feminist perspectives
- Amplifying the voices of women artists and writers from diverse backgrounds, including Indigenous women and those from rural communities
- Fostering a sense of community among female creatives in Saskatchewan, facilitating collaboration and knowledge-sharing
The program's emphasis on feminist values aligns with the Saskatchewan government's initiatives to promote gender equality and address the social determinants of health for women and girls. By supporting women in the arts, the grant contributes to a more inclusive and equitable cultural landscape in the province.
Saskatchewan's unique geography, with its vast rural areas and northern communities, presents both opportunities and challenges for artists. The grant's focus on supporting women from diverse backgrounds acknowledges the importance of representation and accessibility in the arts. By prioritizing outcomes that address these needs, the funder aims to create a more vibrant and inclusive arts scene in Saskatchewan.
The boreal forest and the Qu'Appelle Valley are just two examples of the province's diverse landscapes that have inspired many Saskatchewan artists. The grant's emphasis on supporting local talent and promoting feminist perspectives ensures that these stories are told and celebrated.
Measuring Success in Saskatchewan
The success of the Grants for Women in the Arts program will be measured by the impact of the funded projects on the Saskatchewan arts community. Key indicators include the number of women supported, the diversity of projects funded, and the visibility of the grantees' work in local and national art scenes.

As the application cycle for the grant opens annually on January 1 and closes on January 31, prospective applicants can prepare by reviewing the eligibility criteria and developing innovative projects that align with the program's priority outcomes.
