The BC Arts Council is the B.C. government’s lead agency for arts funding and development in British Columbia. All grants through the BC Arts Council are awarded through a peer assessment process that relies on the knowledge and expertise of British Columbia’s talented arts and culture community. Again this year, the B.C. government is providing $24 million for the BCAC – the highest level of funding in BCAC’s history. Overall, government is investing $60 million in British Columbia’s artists, arts organizations and cultural institutions in 2014-15.
