Canada Cultural Spaces Fund

A complementary program to CCIF is the Canada Cultural Spaces Fund (CCSF). The objective of CCSF is to “contribute to improved physical conditions for arts and heritage related creation, presentation, preservation and exhibition as well as increased and improved access for Canadians to performing arts, visual arts, media arts and to museum collections and heritage displays. This is achieved through the improvement, renovation, and creation of arts and heritage facilities, and through support for the acquisition of specialized equipment and conduct of feasibility studies for cultural projects.”(33)

The program funds three types of activities:

• The construction and/or renovation of arts and/or heritage facilities
• The acquisition of specialized equipment
• The development of feasibility studies for the construction or renovation of arts and/or heritage facilities
