The Arts Operating Funds (AOF) support arts operating and program costs for Yukon organizations.

There are two components of the funds:

• The annual operating component supports the operating costs of societies with on-going and year-round activities.
• The annual project component supports the costs of on-going, annual projects.

You can apply for annual operating funding if your group is an arts-focused non-profit society with on-going and year-round activities. The activities of the society must have a territory-wide impact (indicated by the numbers of individuals or communities involved).

The society must be either:

• primarily engaged in literary, visual or performance arts activities, or
• recognized as an umbrella arts organization.
