The Government of Saskatchewan announced on July 5th a funding to enhance professional development opportunities for Francophone artists in the province. 

The Conseil culturel fransaskois (CCF) will receive $55,000 to deliver workshops between July 2024 to January 2025 for singers, musicians, writers and visual artists. 

“These workshops offer Francophone artists further opportunity to develop their craft and connect with other artists,” Parks, Culture, and Sport Minister Laura Ross said. “The work of the Conseil culturel fransaskois benefits the artists as well as our province by preserving and promoting culture and heritage that contribute to our high quality of life in Saskatchewan communities.” 

The funding is through the five-year Canada-Saskatchewan Agreement for French-language Services.
