Welcome to the BC Arts Council’s Online Grant Management System
The BC Arts Council (BCAC) was created in 1995 as an agency of the Province of British Columbia under the Arts Council Act. The BCAC nurtures and supports arts and culture activity in communities across British Columbia. From community arts in rural and urban centres, to individual artists, professional performing arts companies, Indigenous artists and culture organizations, art galleries, local museums and music festivals – BCAC supports a range of activities while engaging with artists and communities to inform policies and programs.
System updates are regularly scheduled for Thursday evenings 7-7:10pm Pacific time. There may be a brief period of service unavailability which could log you out of the system and any work entered and not saved could be lost. Please save often. Users will be prompted to update their password once every 365 days.
To help ensure you receive system emails, add NoReply@BCArtsCouncil.ca to your email program's contacts or safe senders list.
New applicants must register and create a profile in this online system to access BC Arts Council grant applications. As described in program guidelines, we recommend registering and creating a profile at least two weeks before the application closing date. Registration requests received within five days of a grant deadline will not be processed until after the application deadline has passed.
Please direct urgent inquiries via email to BCArtsCouncil@gov.bc.ca. Updates will be posted to our website main page at www.bcartscouncil.ca.
System and grant application access remains available at this time.
