Canada-Korea Connections

Canada-Korea Co-creation Fund

Are you a Canadian artist or arts organization looking to collaborate with a Korean partner on a creative project?

The Canada-Korea Co-creation Fund looks to boost creative connections between Canada and Korea by supporting projects focused on artistic co-creation between the two countries. It’s inspired by 60 years of diplomatic ties and is made possible through a partnership between Canada Council for the Arts, Arts Council Korea, and Global Affairs Canada.

You may be eligible for the Canada-Korea Co-creation Fund if you:

• have existing ties to Korean arts and culture;
• have a Korean artistic collaborator in mind for a new co-creation project;
• are a Canadian citizen or permanent resident living in Canada;
• have 7 years of professional experience in your creative field;
• have a project in mind that looks to move the marker forward on environmental sustainability, equity, diversity, or inclusion; and
• have demonstrated capacity for international work and collaboration.
