The idea of the project can originate with the school or with an artist, writer or cultural organization listed in the Répertoire culture-éducation . The cultural partner and the school must ensure that the eligibility criterias for the component are respected, work together to design an artistic project for students and fill out the project submission form, which must take into account the following points:
For projects completed as joint creations, it is important to clearly distinguish the role of students from that of the artist or writer. The student must complete an experimental work, while the project completed by the cultural resource must be based on professional creation.
Applications may be accompanied by photos, videos and not more than four pages of complimentary documentation. This documentation may include the cultural resource’s CV, a detailed schedule of activities and a list of expenses as well as details on the process and creative works of the second and third cultural resources, if applicable. For visual arts projects, applicants are strongly advised to submit a few photographs of their recent work or to provide a hyperlink to a Web portfolio.
It should be noted that the cultural partner in no way serves as a substitute for the teacher during the project.
The application must be sent by the cultural partner or the educational partner using the submission tool. This tool can only be used once for each application, so the application must be complete when it is sent.
The following information and documents are required to submit the application:
The total size of the attached files must not be greater than 100 Mb. Audio and video files must have a maximum size of 50 Mb each.
Step 1: Verification of project eligibility
The first committee will ensure that the applications contain all the required documents, meet the eligibility conditions and provide the necessary information for the submission to be analyzed.
Step 2: Evaluation of applications
Requests are evaluated by a committee made up of representatives of the Ministère de l’Éducation and the Ministère de la Culture et des Communications, along with members of the cultural and school communities representing performance arts, visual arts and literature.
The evaluation of applications takes into account the following criteria:
If a project is selected, the evaluation committee recommends financial assistance based on the amount requested. Once the amount of the grant has been set, it does not change unless the project is cancelled before completion. No requests to increase the financial assistance will be authorized once the project has been accepted.
The deadline for receipt of applications has passed for the 2020-2021 school year.
