The BCAC was established in 1996 to serve the people of British Columbia by assisting the development of the province’s arts and cultural community. It fulfills this responsibility by delivering a range of programs intended to meet the needs of a large and diverse arts and cultural constituency. In the last fiscal year, the BCAC had a budget of $14 million and made 977 awards from 1,756 applicants. We conducted a review of its theatre and music programs to provide an overview and assessment of:
- The province’s professional not-for-profit theatre and music sectors;
- Whether the programs are meeting the stated objectives;
- The current eligibility and assessment criteria;
- The effectiveness, efficiency, and transparency of the application/adjudication process; and
- The alignment of the program objectives with the Council’s strategic priorities.
In addition, we developed options and recommendations regarding revisions to the existing program structure and content that would serve the sector more effectively and better achieve the Council’s stated priorities.
