In this workshop we will discuss options and loopholes to find ways around these obstacles. There will be a presentation followed by a discussion\, and participants are welcome to bring project ideas to brainstorm funding options together.  \n\n\n\nNo materials are needed for this workshop\, but participants will need a computer and access to the internet.  \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nArt funding loopholes for non-permanent residents in Canada is part of the Identification quad. This quad is focused around the imposed systems of Identity Documents as tools for surveillance and control. The quad reimagines other ways to identify our inner beings that are not focused on constructs such as our nationality\, race or gender. \n\n\n\n\n\nWhile workshops are free and open to anyone in Toronto\, space is limited and priority will be given to Etobicoke residents\, newcomers\, immigrants and refugees and people who experience barriers to accessing arts opportunities.
