The Operating Assistance for Media Arts Organizations program contributes to the support of professional, not-for-profit media arts organizations that sustain an annual artistic program encompassing production, distribution, collections and dissemination activities. Media arts are defined as works in film, video, audio/sound art and new media. New media includes new information and communications technologies used for artistic expression.

The BC Arts Council’s Operating Assistance Programs for professional organizations will now open in early June with updates in alignment with Extending Foundations, including streamlining of program intakes and updated eligibility criteria.
