Join us on Thursday, November 19, 2026, for the next edition of the Speaker Series! At the top of the webinar, Nik Nanos will present the latest findings from the Arts Response Tracking Survey (ARTS), offering new insights into donation trends and the motivations behind giving to arts and culture organizations across Canada.
The session will explore why arts and culture-goers choose to give and how they prefer to show their support. Join us as fundraising and development leaders reflect on the report’s findings and share what they’re seeing in their communities. Together, we’ll consider how arts organizations can attract new donors, encourage repeat giving and build lasting relationships.
