OPEN ART COLLECTIVE INCORPORATED

Business Number: 718118953

 

We are committed to Indigenous reconciliation, racial equity, disability justice, and gender and sexual diversity.

 

"We acknowledge that our community is located on Treaty 6 Territory and the Traditional Homeland of the Métis. Indigenous people of primarily Cree, Dakota and Saulteaux descent have called Saskatoon home for thousands of years.”

​

Mission 

​Our mission is to transform public spaces into vibrant hubs of community interaction and artistic expression. Through engaging and temporary art installations, we aim to foster a sense of belonging and pride within neighbourhoods, cityscapes, and shared spaces, inspire creativity, and spark meaningful connections among residents and visitors alike.

 

Open Art Collective is run by a volunteer Board of Directors, with one paid administration position.

Funding is secured by writing grants , sponsorship and partnerships to bring projects to fruition. The majority of funding goes towards the artists, promotion and logistics to ensure successful outcomes for each initiative.

​​​​

Open Art Collective transforms public spaces into vibrant hubs of creativity and community connection. Through dynamic, temporary art installations, we inspire belonging, spark creativity, and foster meaningful interactions. Have an idea you'd love to bring to life? We’re here to help!
