Grant applications can feel like a lot, but funding your next great sketch comedy idea doesn’t have to be out of reach.
If you’ve got a brilliant idea for a new sketch comedy show, this might be your sign from the comedy gods (and the Ontario Arts Council): Toronto Sketchfest is a recommender organization for the OAC’s Recommender Grants for Theatre Creators program.
That means we get to recommend artists for funding to develop new comedy projects. Yes, you could get paid to create your next show.
Join us November 17th to Learn More
Join TOsketchfest Festival Producer Virginia Woodall for a free webinar on the OAC Recommender Grants for Theatre Creators. We’ll unpack who can apply, which projects are eligible, what TOsketchfest is excited to support, how we’ll evaluate applications, and exactly what the application will ask you.
We’ll wrap-up with an open Q&A, so bring your big ideas and burning questions!
