Nia Centre is a Recommender for the 2025-26 Exhibition Assistance Grant Program, administered by the Ontario Arts Council. The Exhibition Assistance program supports Ontario-based artists and artist collectives working in visual arts, craft and media art practices in the presentation of their artwork in a confirmed public exhibition. Through this grant program, artists and collectives can apply for $500 – $2000.

We’ve partnered with representatives from the Ontario Arts Council on a virtual info session to break down everything you need to know about the grant.

Nia Centre is prioritizing:

  • First-time applicants to the program;
  • Project’s capacity to support the applicant’s career development and artistic practice;
  • Project’s ability to expand and push Black visual aesthetics and cultural development.

You can find more information about the program here. The deadline for applications is September 12, 2025.
