Applicants can choose a variety of forms including, but not limited to, writing, performance, visual, music, film, cooking, and textiles. If your individual or community project centres storytelling and/or art as an expression of heritage and relates to amiskwacîwâskahikan (Edmonton), we encourage you to apply.Please join us and take the opportunity to ask questions and get clarification on what the FIRE grant is as well as how and when to apply.
