Edmonton Artists’ Trust Fund

The Edmonton Artist’s Trust Fund (EATF) is a joint project of the Edmonton Arts Council and the Edmonton Community Foundation.

Funds are intended to support artists at all stages of their professional careers, in all fields and any artistic tradition, who demonstrate excellence in their field and commitment to working in and contributing to the Edmonton region’s arts community.
