Additional funding for the arts
When can the recovery truly begin and what will it look like? Even if we can’t say for sure, we can prepare.
In its 2020 Fall Economic Statement, the federal government announced $181.5M in additional funds in 2021‒22 for the Department of Canadian Heritage and the Canada Council for the Arts to enhance their support to the arts sector. We expect that the specifics of the funding will be revealed in early 2021.
With these funds, the Council plans to support projects that create jobs. As soon as we get the green light, we will announce our initiatives, and we intend to distribute the funding very quickly. It is urgent that we support those who have been without work thus far. You should start preparing now.
We are looking for proposals that require that you hire artists and experts, who need to work to get through the pandemic. Once again, please be ready.
Before the new funding is made available, we will have the opportunity to discuss the last year and our vision for the future with you and with the broader public. And so I encourage you to add our 2021 Annual Public Meeting to your calendars (it will be held at 4 p.m. EST on January 26, 2021).
In closing, I want to thank you for your confidence, and I salute your courage and your efforts to fly the arts-and-culture flag high and proud during these difficult times. I wish you restorative holidays. I hope you take time to recuperate—and rest assured that we will be by your side more than ever after the holiday break.
Simon Brault, O.C., O.Q.
Director and CEO

BLACK DOG & ONE-EYED PRESS is currently seeking submissions of up to five poems. We anticipate the 2021 print publication of a book of paintings along with poems which speak to or in some way reflect upon the state of the world in 2020 and the ways in which we, as individuals and as societies, have responded, and/or how we might imagine going forward.
The paintings will be selected from a series which artist and educator Bill Liebeskind began a few weeks into the Covid lockdown in NYC. Each painting shows someone in a mask. To view the paintings, please visit Liebeskind’s Instagram feed: Bill Liebeskind, or his Covid blog here https://billliebeskind.medium.com/91-divoc-1cb1020197de

PRESS RELEASE for immediate release
Moncton, November 19th, 2020 – The art of choreography will be highlighted this fall during the event Création Danse produced by Les Productions DansEncorps Inc.! Création Danse is an annual choreographic mentorship program that encourages artists of all levels to create and present choreography in a non-competitive atmosphere. The exchange between the dance artist and the community is a valued component of this program.
With the supervision of the DansEncorps Productions team, the participants are able to produce their work in a professional setting with good conditions. This is an opportunity for emerging choreographers and performers to improve their skills in this trade. The program encourages the presentation of diversity and various dance styles, from classical ballet to urban dance, including contemporary, folk dance and musical comedy.
Since September, the studios of the DansEncorps School have been incubators of ideas and have safely welcomed the groups (bubbles) and participants of Création Danse 2020. No less than eight new choreographies are being created and the artists are working diligently to finish and refine their work! The second audition is fast approaching, on November 22, 2020.
We can’t wait to unveil the original works resulting from this 2020 edition, on stage, the weekend of December 12th and 13th. Stay tuned for more information on our activities and presentations!

Dialogue New Brunswick (DNB) will receive applications from professional artists or art lovers, with a rich and extensive culture in the arts, an excellent knowledge of New Brunswick’s artistic community, and who are familiar with interpreting artwork until November 23, 2020. The successful candidate will accompany Dialogue NB in the design and implementation of the “Artistic Expression” component of its upcoming public consultation.
Dialogue NB is a non-profit organization, led by a volunteer board of directors, with a mandate to help the Province of New Brunswick to be a more socially cohesive community.
As part of its mandate, Dialogue NB will launch a public consultation at the end of November to survey the state of New Brunswick on social cohesion in depth and amplify New Brunswickers’ voices. This consultation is part of a two-step process.
Phase 1: During the first 6 months (November 30, 2020 to May 31, 2021), all New Brunswickers will be invited to express themselves on what social cohesion means to them (ideal vision, challenges, issues, etc.). They will have the choice between six ways of expression, which will open up as the consultation progresses. From November, a survey (online), an open forum (online), and the opportunity for representatives of organizations to meet and talk at the Government House will be offered. In early 2021, three new components will gradually be added : “Public Dialogue,” “Artistic Expression” and “Youth” (Little Childhood, Primary, Secondary). The findings of the consultation will be made public at the end of this six months. They will also be submitted to the Lieutenant-Governor, the Honourable Brenda Murphy, in addition to the Premier and other key decision-makers in New Brunswick.
Phase 2: Based on the results of this consultation and its data, Dialogue NB will define a reading grid of the province’s social cohesion challenges: this grid will serve as a basis for reflection on the development of solutions by and for New Brunswickers. The duration of the second phase will be six (6) months, starting in June 2021 until December 2021.

The Galerie d’art Louise-et-Reuben-Cohen presents Habitat, a new exhibition by artists Valerie LeBlanc and Daniel H. Dugas as part of the Festival International du cinema francophone en Acadie. The opening will be held on November 18, from 4 to 6 PM and there will be two presentations by the artists, at 4:30 and at 5:30 PM. (Please note that 40 people will be allowed inside the building at any given time).
Habitat is a trilogy of video, audio, and photo projects that have been produced in the context of artistic residencies in various nature reserves in South Florida. As introduced by the artists: “We explored each of these areas in turn with our cameras and audio recorders, often accompanying biologists and botanists in the performance of their duties. We tried to understand the reality of these places by remaining open to the spirits that inhabit them.”
Curator Jonathan Lamy explains the artists’ primary practice in this exhibition, videopoetry: “The artworks presented in Habitat are neither film nor cinema, but videopoetry. A hybrid practice, a genre which erases the boundary between video and poetry.” The works in the exhibition thus manifest themselves in an association of images and texts that intermingle in the same space, and point to the place of human beings in nature.
Habitat will be presented from November 6 to December 20, 2020. Visiting hours are 1 – 4 PM, Tuesday to Sunday. Admission is free and all are welcome. The exhibition includes QR codes and visitors are encouraged to bring their smartphones as well as their ear buds to access the soundwalks. For those who don’t have built-in QR code readers, third-party applications can be downloaded from Google Play or the Apple Store.
