  • Who Can Apply: Professional artists and writers (CALQ definition) whose principal residence is in a participating MRC or municipality of the Bas-Saint-Laurent region, who are Canadian citizens or permanent residents and have lived in Quebec for the past 12 months. All CALQ disciplines are eligible, including visual arts, crafts (métiers d'art), digital arts and multidisciplinary arts. Staff of the partner organizations cannot apply.
  • The Focus: Creation, production and outreach projects that build links between the arts and the community in Bas-Saint-Laurent. Each project must formally involve at least one regional partner, such as a school, library, municipality or community group.
  • The Funding: The artist receives a grant of up to $20,000, covering at most 80% of the project cost. The rest of the budget must come from partners as money or services. Eligible costs include the artist's own pay, research, materials, studio rental, travel and promotion.
  • Key Requirements: Apply online through Mon dossier CALQ (government AGOV sign-in) by 11:59 p.m. on November 26, 2026.
