Invent & Adapt

Deadline: Ongoing

Through the Invent & Adapt program, the Edmonton Arts Council (EAC) will invest in organizations that are preparing, planning, and implementing thoughtful and considered change.

Invent & Adapt might support a wide range of work that is centered on reimagining and retooling an organization's future, and/or addressing the needs of Edmonton's various arts network and disciplinary capacities. This may take the form of technical assistance and planning, the re-imagining of systems, programs, and practices, the implementation of well-planned strategies around growth or contraction, the management of transitions and successions, or to respectfully bring an organization to a close.
