Guide to OAC Operating Grants updated
The OAC Guide to Operating Grants now adds detailed rules for eligibility, application materials, assessment, funding principles, and recipient obligations for operating recipients.
The Guide to OAC Operating Grants now provides grant-specific rules for Ontario Arts Council operating funding, including eligibility distinctions for returning and new applicants, category transfers, and the operating-grant assessment process. It also adds concrete application and recipient requirements such as Nova submission, CADAC financial and statistical reporting, two years of financial statements, annual reapplication, and post-award conditions including payment holds and a limit of two project grants per year for operating recipients. The guide further explains that 2026-27 operating funding is adjusted using assessment results, category impact, revenue and expense profile, and other Ontario government support, with grant recommendations approved by the CEO for grants of $30,000 and under and by the board for grants over $30,000.
