Call for projects for invitations to presenters and programmers outside Quebec

Purpose

Culture is recognized as an essential component in the development of Quebec society.

The mission of the Ministry of Culture and Communications (Ministry) is to contribute to the affirmation of the identity and cultural vitality of Quebec, to promote the access and participation of citizens in cultural life and to encourage development of the communications sector.

The Department considers the culture and communications communities to be key partners in achieving its mission. It supports them through the Project Assistance program, which aims to:

• receive projects set up by applicants according to their objectives, but which are in line with the orientations of the Department;
• call for projects corresponding to the orientations of the Ministry. To this end, the Department establishes a common approach to all calls for projects.

The financial assistance granted by the Ministry must allow the realization over a determined period of circumscribed actions that cannot be automatically renewed.

In the long term, the projects supported will contribute to the dynamism, vitality and influence of Québec culture as well as to the organizational, administrative and financial health of cultural and communication organizations so that they can continue to invest in the community they serve.

Goals

This program is intended for organizations that offer major events in Quebec, to support their efforts to introduce international partners to the richness of artistic creation and Quebec's cultural identity.

In a context of increased competition and given the modest size of the domestic market, Quebec creators must develop audiences and intensify their presence on the international cultural scene.

In accordance with the Ministry's strategic plan and the action plan linked to Québec's international policy , this call for projects has the following objectives:

• increase the circulation of Québec artistic creations on markets outside Québec;
• to help stimulate demand for them and maximize their spinoffs;
• to contribute to the establishment of lasting links between presenters and programmers outside Quebec and the Quebec cultural community.
