We are busy working away on a detailed strategy and plan for new program development that responds to ArtsPond's evolving mandate. Check out the following for a bird's eye view of what is in the works. 

While our recent proposal to launch a three-year charitable venture pilot project was not successful, we are far from down and out, and not at all discouraged. Many burning questions remain on our minds. 

The following is a response to a Request for Proposals to launch a Shared Charitable Venture Platform for the Arts (Pilot Project) funded by Metcalf Foundation, Ontario Trillium Foundation, Canada Council for the Arts, Ontario Arts Council, and Toronto Arts Council. Also available as a PDF. 

We are pleased to launch the latest visual modelling of ArtsPond's strategic vision and mandate! 

In case you missed it, the Metcalf Foundation, Ontario Trillium Foundation, Ontario Arts Council, and Toronto Arts Council have  announced a landmark, public-private sector joint venture to fund the first charitable shared platform for the arts in Ontario. For more information, please visit the Metcalf Foundation.  A preliminary description of the process follows.  

While our goals are rather lofty and ambitious, we hope you will consider supporting the future of ArtsPond by becoming a founding contributor in one of four ways.
